Anyone using SAA7134+v4l2
Is anyone successfully using a SAA7134 based card with mythtv?

I have the card working with xawtv without problems.

Mplayer will also works but resulutions above approx 280 verticle lines
cause green lines in the picture if a non rgb output format is used.

mythtv doesn't seem to talk v4l2 properly (or at least teh saa7134
version of it), because it gives repeated IO errors inside the capture
loop of NuppleVideoRecorder.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It doesn't talk v4l2 at all, unless you change the ifdef in
NuppelVideoRecorder.cpp. I'm not sure if things still work with the curernt
v4l2 API, though, since it's been awhile since I wrote support for it.
