Did you set the video standard? All sorts of bad things could happen if you set the format to 720x576 but the standard is still set to NTSC. To get the standards supported, you can run: v4l2-ctl --list-standards And then set the standard with "v4l2-ctl -s". Do this before setting the format. Devin -- Devin J.
