Subject: xawtv - no picture
Date: Sun, 27 Jul 2008 16:21:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <488C9266.7010108@blueyonder.co.uk> (raw)

I am trying to run xawtv (or actually streamer) to capture video - but 
at the moment, it is not working.

For details of my system, please see 
http://www.smolts.org/client/show_all/pub_86fd06ee-583b-40d2-b23b-92749309023b

I have a K-World DVB-T 210SE card which I hope will allow me to capture 
the video (although that is not very evident in the above link)

Here is a section of the dmesg output

When I try to run xawtv, this is what I get

Also, the screen is black, although the camera was turned on.

I feel that it is trying to tell me something - but I do not understand 
what it is saying.  Is there any hope?
