[ We should move this to the mythtv-users mailing-list. ]
This is a common problem; the procedure that I've been suggesting:
- patch < v4l2 patches > kernel-source
- comment out the inclusion of time.h in
kernel-source/include/linux/videodev2.h as per Isaac
- cp kernel-source/include/linux/videodev*.h /usr/include/linux
- build and reboot under new kernel
[0] - update myth from cvs and build cleanly
- update ivtv drivers from cvs and build
- unload any previously-loaded v4l modules (specifically msp34xx)
- follow ivtv/doc/capturing.txt to insert modules in proper order
Please let us know if this works for you so that it can eventually get
rolled into the Myth documentation.
