Hi. Serena Cantor, 01.11.2007 00:03: > I can use xawtv in etch to watch TV, but am not happy with it, so I try mplayer. So far it does > not work. Below is output: > (BTW: can you recommend other TV-watching packages in etch?) > > $ mplayer driver=v4l tv://16 norm=PAL device=/dev/video0 >& output.txt > > […] > > Playing driver=v4l. > File not found: 'driver=v4l' > Failed to open driver=v4l. The manpage of mplayer contains this example: > input from standard V4L: > mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l:width=640:height=480:outfmt=i420 -vc rawi420 -vo xv So you’re missing the "-tv" which is why mplayer recognizes "driver=v4l" as filename.
