severity 509118 wishlist Hi Petter,
Petter Reinholdtsen <[email protected]>: > Package: dvgrab > Version: 3.1-2 > > I've tried to get dvgrab in Lenny to fetch DV video from a Panasonic > NV-GS230 camera, without luck so far. The camera claim to be able to > stream DV over USB, but dvgrab is unable to fetch any frames. > > I used the following command line: > > dvgrab -V --input /dev/video0 -f raw foo > > The camera was in recording mode. The program report that grabbing > is started, but when I terminate dvgrab a few seconds later it report > that no frames were found, and no foo file is created. The camera is > set to use "Motion DV" in USB mode, whatever that means. > > I did find a program capable of dumping information about the V4L2 > device, <URL:http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/v4l2-formats.c>, and > it reports this: > > /dev/video0 is a V4L2 device named 'DVC' > /dev/video0 is capable of video capture > /dev/video0 is capable of streaming capture > /dev/video0 supports 'SD-DV 50Hz' (compressed format, > V4L2_PIX_FMT_DV) > > I also tested with the version 3.2 in unstable, and this one work. > Please update the one in testing with the one in unstable, to get a > version working with USB included in Lenny. > Lenny is already freezed, so there is no normal way to get dvgrab-3.2 into lenny anymore. I don't want to stress the Release Managers with this request. If you want, you have my support to ask they.
