Can you try 2.6.15-rc4-git1 and let us know how things are?


well, with 2.6.15-rc4-git video_buf related problems are gone, but it's still
far from usable. xawtv is unable to use tunner.

Which card do you have? What card # does it report in dmesg? What tuner # is it using? What is the PCI Subsystem id?

The following MIGHT fix it.... If so, I'll need the answers to the four questions above, in order to make this behavior occur by default:

modprobe tda9887

This fixes the problem for analog video with pcHDTV 3000 and DViCO FusionHDTV3 Gold-T. We've already fixed it in cvs so that this will be detected by default, if you have a different card, we might have to apply a similar fix. If that doesn't help, then it's a different bug.

Moreover, it seems that it cannot get another capture format than 320x240 RGB.
