Followed the howto here: |
| 2 |
http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/BTTV.html |
| 3 |
(which by the way is 5 years old) |

I have an old hauppauge bt878 card with 4 inputs on it. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I have the video1 working fine, but how do I enable the other inputs? |
| 8 |
They're all the same RCA kind. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I ran the MAKEDEV script, but it didn't seem to make all the video* and vbi* |
| 11 |
nodes other than the first one... |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I manually created the rest using the HOWTO as an example: |
| 14 |
I don't know anything about nodes and all this stuff, so I guessed that the |
| 15 |
'c' number is the same as the ones that were created, and the number next to |
| 16 |
that increments from the one created. |

If I try to take a picture: |

/usr/bin/v4lctl -c /dev/video0 snap jpeg 320x240 |
| 44 |
/home/dae51d/public_html/nokia_cam.jpg |

/usr/bin/v4lctl -c /dev/video1 snap jpeg 320x240 |
| 46 |

Then the first one works fine, but the second one is failing with: |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
v4l2: open /dev/video1: No such device |
| 51 |
v4l2: open /dev/video1: No such device |
| 52 |
v4l: open /dev/video1: No such device |
| 53 |
no grabber device available |
