i was having the same problem until i started playing with videodog:
http://planeta.terra.com.br/informatica/gleicon/video4linux/videodog.html
(use version 7).
it turned out that my card was defaulting to PAL for some reason. once i
manually switched it to NTSC with videodog i was able to grab frames.
after that running
xawtv -noxv
with a config file that sets the default modes to NTSC and "no overlay"
let me start seeing video with xawtv. it's still pretty tweaky and
inconsistant though, and i can't always get it all to work well. sound
is always fine though.
