hi,
i'm running version v1.21.3
my video is coming up as
the camera is a cheap b&w cctv camera bought from aldi a few months ago, the capture card is an old jetway BT878 card.
the output of zmu -d /dev/video0 -q -v is:

I've tried changing the capture resolution and frame rate etc, but can't get a steady image. Changing from PAL to NTSC in the settings gives an OK picture (although zmu suggests it should be in PAL) - and even then this picture jitters up and down?
Any ideas please?
Thanks
please help diagnose video problem
