Kodicom 8800 (200fps 8 CHannel real DVR Digital Video Card for CCTV on ebay) clone working on Ubuntu9.04 server + ZM1.24.2. Create file /etc/modprobe.d/bttv-option and write in file

options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1
options bttv gbuffers=32 card=102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102 tuner=0 radio=0 coring=1 full_luma_range=1 chroma_agc=1 pll=1 combfilter=1 autoload=0 triton1=0

I'm using my 6 cameras setup with 640x480 and just 5 fps because my 7 years old Celeron can't pick up more load. Setup with only one camera works 640x480 25 fps without problems.

Thank You for great software .

where did you get this info for modprobe ?

I googled and tested diferent types and found 102 workin the best. First line of file options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1, as I understand, is used to push linux to use these hardware drivers. Without this line, linux booting takes very long time (some minutes). I noticed this long time period is used to detect hardware drivers.
