Actually, I'm probably using the 0.2.0 release; I couldn't find any
mention of an associated CVS repository.

Thanks, assuming I can get all this worked out...

The yellow/white/red video/audio inputs, whichever those are called.

No such luck, alas; I'm no longer getting the weird half-interlaced bits
like before (that I've seen, at least), but I am still getting the
2-3-2-3 field pattern (though it varies sometimes; scene changes in
particular almost always seem to end up a frame behind, even if they
were in the "correct" part of the pattern). It seems to depend on which
channel I record from --- but pursuant to Murphy's Law, of course, all
the channels I'm interested in seem to be affected. I couldn't have
damaged the hardware permanently, could I?
