Hi,

i ask sorry if someone else asked this before,
and i ask sorry for my english.

Is it possible to use mplayer tv-input capabilities to grab video from
dvb-drivers' v4l interface ?

I load drivers (01-04-2002 version), tune to a channel using vdr, and
then launch mplayer with this command line:

mplayer -tv on:noaudio:driver=v4l

but i can get NO picture at all, even specifying height and width.
xawtv works, but mplayer doesn't.

mplayer tell me: "ioctl mcapture failed: Invalid argument".

Thank you,
Angelus.
