xawtv / streamer question (BTTV driver)



 - xawtv version                                
        xawtv-2.41-1
 - kernel version
        2.2.5-22        (Redhat 6.0)
 - driver version
        #define BTTV_VERSION_CODE 0x000523
 - which grabber board
        3Com Big Picture PCI camera (BT848)
 - which TV norms are used in your country.
        ntsc
 - if xawtv prints errors, include these too.
        none
 - don't forget a description of your problem :-)
        xawtv works fine.  But when I try to use streamer I can't get it
to save a picture.  Instead the picture just comes out as a blue box.

 - the insmod arguments for the modules
        none
 - the kernel messages printed by bttv while loading.
        Linux video capture interface: v1.00
        bttv0: Brooktree Bt848 (rev 17) bus: 0, devfn: 96, irq: 11,
memory: 0xe2000000.
        bttv: 1 Bt8xx card(s) found.
        bttv0: Hauppauge eeprom: tuner= (4)
        bttv0: audio chip: TDA9840
        bttv0: audio chip: TDA9850
        bttv0: audio chip: TDA8425
        bttv0: model: BT848(Hauppauge old)
 - have you tried the version which is bundled with xawtv?
        I am using the version that comes with the linux kernel.


With xawtv, I use the following settings:

norm = NTSC
capture = on
source = Composite1

freqtab = ntsc-bcast
pixsize = 128 x 96
jpeg-quality = 75


I try to run streamer -o picture.jpg, but it just comes out as a blue box.

I have also tried things like:

streamer -f jpeg -o picture.jpg

Any ideas how to get streamer grab a picture from the cam?

Thanks,

Brian
