$ apt-cache show ivtv-utils Package: ivtv-utils Source: ivtv-utils (1.4.1-2) Version: 1.4.1-2+b2 Installed-Size: 400 Maintainer: Debian MythTV Team <pkg-mythtv-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Architecture: amd64 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.14), libgcc1 (>= 1:3.0), libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1), perl:any, libconfig-inifiles-perl, libvideo-ivtv-perl, libvideo-capture-v4l-perl, v4l-utils Recommends: perl-tk, devscripts, fakeroot, unzip Description-en: utilities for use with the ivtv kernel driver The IVTV project develops a kernel driver for Linux and a driver for X11 for hardware based on Conexant's CX23415/CX23416 codec chip such as the Hauppauge PVR 150/250/350/500 models and other supported hardware. there is also firmware-ivtv and xserver-xorg-video-ivtv. I htink you have those, but who knows. I would try this way anyway Try using following to grab the camera mplayer -fps 10 -tv driver=v4l2:width=640:height=480:device=/dev/video0 tv:// -fps in my case 10 is compromise - you can try higher values note v4l2 ;-) regards
