[MPlayer-users] TV doesn't work

[Bert Haverkamp]

Hello all,

Sorry for the simple header. But it is true I can't seem to get watching TV 
working. Xawtv does work ( at least image. I wory about audio later)
But with mplayer I have no succes. 

I have a pinnacle PCTV card. The bttv module is loaded.
I use the following command line (MPlayer 0.90rc5-3.2.3)
mplayer -tv driver=v4l:norm=pal:channel=E2:chanlist=europe-west:width=352: 
height=240 -vo xv tv://

On the console I get:
Playing TV
Cache fill:  0.00% (0 bytes)    TV detected! ;-)
Selected driver: v4l
