What do I have to do to enable Composite 0? Right now when I try to
switch inputs it stays on the tuner. If I modify the connections in
setup and make Tuner None and assign my Video Source to Composite then
nothing works. 

Do I need to enable it in ivtv or are they basically all enabled by
default?

Thanks,
James
