Are you able to adjust the focus manually on the cameras? Often this involves simply rotating the lens...

No. Cameras work good in 1 input of pico2000 capture.

Thanks for your replay!!!!!!!!!

Oh I see - so both cameras work fine if plugged into the first port, but neither if using the second port?

Okay, sounds like a card issue then. (apologies if that's what you've already determined!).

I'm not sure what to suggest - I've only just started playing with capture cards myself.

thanks for your replay. And yes I think it is something with he capture. Or may be modprobe.conf file but I am not shure

My modprobe config is
options bttv card=77 tuner=-1 radio=0 triton1=0 vsfx=0 autoload=0

I just did a search for the Pico2000 card and found a photo which suggests it's the very same card that I use - previously I'd considered mine to be somewhat unbranded and hence didn't know what it was.

However, it is recognised at a card type 77 (Grandtec) however my working modprobe options are simply options bttv card=77 tuner=-1 radio=0 however as your extra options are zero anyway it might be that they are the default. Give it a try anyway though just in case.

However (again!), I've currently only got one camera connected to perhaps the problem is when there're two. Or do you still have problems with just one camera connected (to the second port or whatever)?

[Edit: Just noticed that your config line is exactly as per the Wiki so perhaps the options are fine as they are... Could perhaps be a dodgy card then? Is it the same port each time that gives problems, or is it just when you've got two cameras connected?]
