bttv card=77 - which palette?
Posted: Mon Oct 05, 2009 2:41 pm
My card is a cheapo bt878 card=77
I can only see to get the palette Grey running, nothing else shows in the view (showing an empty image container, but not a broken image container).
zmdc.log shows this
dmesg is clear of errors (but here it is anyway)
I've even used it with various other cameras (all PAL), and nothing helps. Although I am mostly sure that the palette/resolution issues are down to the card...
Any ideas?
