This should be theorically feasible if the card provide a separate /dev/videoX device for each port; otherwise it would be trick or impossible. Lacking such kind of cards, I've neve tried personally. > My card has 4 video inputs. I can switch the port with tvtime but > I'm wondering if I can do this with transcode.

That isn't straightforward to do; moreover, transcode (yet) intentionally lacks any device control facility (i.e. port selection or tuning frequqncy). I'm personally interested on those kind of tasks, but I lack hardware to test :( Bests, -- Francesco Romani // Ikitt [ Out of memory. ~ We wish to hold the whole sky, ~ But we never will. ]
