<body><div style="text-align: left;">I am trying to capture and record Video from S-Video connection from my STB Motorola DCT-6200. Since I can't capture premium channels I thought I'd be able to use the S-Video out to record premium channels.<br><br>This is my configuration: <br><br>ABIT NF-M2 nView Socket AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 6150<br>Hauppage Pvr-150 with IR Blaster and remote<br><br>HD5500 dvb card ...<br><br>Linux kernel 2.6.19.0 <br><br><br>the dvb card is on /dev/video0<br>PVR-150 has 3 dev nodes /dev/video1 , /dev/video24 and /dev/video32<br><br>I used VLC's , video lan client, ( capture device ) setting to verify that I could watch TV by going to PVR section and specifying /dev/video1 as my device. I then connected S-Video cable from Cable Box to PVR-150 and tried to switch to /dev/video24 and /dev/video32 but I couldn't see anything. At this point I don't know if what I am doing is correct?<br><br>I also can't find info that shows how to capture or display images from S-Video or Componet input any ideas?<br><br>for example.. how do I properly set up S-Video capture for Pvr-150 in mythtv ? My PVR-150 in mythtv-setup shows at least 3 inputs under cable, component and S-Video .. ( I have 3 inputs used up: cable, S-Video and Sound )<br><br>how should I properly configure mythtv to use an S-Video connection? .. I will add this to the mythtv wiki if I find a successful method that works ..<br><br>I am presuming that since I wasn't able to see data from my S-Video connection using VLC means that anything else I do now won't work until I get that figured out.. btw I can get cable w/out a problem using the cable input ... and my DVB card gets HD qam 256 w/out a problem ....<br><br>any suggestions are welcome<br><br>IM<br><br><br><br></div><br /><hr />Live Search: Better results, fast <a href='http://get.live.com/search/overview' target='_new'>Try it now!</a></body>
