Hello, Yes, I have some actions to do.
1.- I have to connect just 1 capture card (preferable on a different slot). 2.- Change permissions under /dev/video* (thanks Andrew Leahy). My username is on administrator group (I can make "sudo" commands), but it can be a reason to no detect my capture cards on my AG 3.2 beta. 3.- I will test with another apps related with my capture video cardes (Hauppauge based on BT878 chipset). Thanks to all, I'll write my results.
