   maco1717_: Hi how is everyone here? xD
   <br> I was looking for some help wiv cheap capturer august vgb100 USBID 1f4d:0102 on a latest debian
   <br> ?
   <br> hi!
   <br> anyone here know anything about V4L?
   hverkuil: <u>maco1717_</u>: what's your question?
   maco1717_: ALELUYA!
   <br> in essence and abstract
   <br> when i try capturing i get a green screen with a line at the top with some movement, I dont know why this could be
   <br> I've tried changing the color encoding mode, actually tried all of them
   hverkuil: where are you located? Could be a 50 vs 60 hz issue.
   maco1717_: btw this is when opening on mplayer
   <br> well trying to...
   <br> im UK
   <br> oh, wait I know who you are, (i think) i read loads of "post" from you...
   hverkuil: the driver should default to 50 hz, so that should be ok.
   <br> Try using qv4l2 instead of mplayer.
   maco1717_: i have tried but it doesnt start up
   hverkuil: why not? does it crash?
   maco1717_: it doesnt even come up
   <br> I click to open from GUI and nothing comes up...
   <br> the only thing i managed to get was once that the capturer wasnt actually connected i tried to open it and i prompted with an error message no capturing device found
   hverkuil: enter a console, run 'v4l2-ctl -D' and see if it finds a video device.
   maco1717_: I'm not on my PC ATM (at work)
   hverkuil: if v4l2-ctl finds a video device, then running qv4l2 should work as well. If there are more video devices (such as a webcam), then you can select which one to use with the '-d' option: v4l2-ctl (or qv4l2) -d /dev/video0 (or 1 or 2, etc).
   <br> video0 is the default.
   maco1717_: I'll give that a try thanks.
   <br> <u>hverkuil</u>: I was wondering you wouldn't know if August VGB100 and http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00JP4SZ7M?psc=1&amp;redirect=true&amp;ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00 would work together on Linux easily would you?
   <br> Im out home now
   <br> wahooa!

   <br> awalls has left
   maco1717: <u>hverkuil</u>: my mistake, I confused qv4l2 test utility with guvcview...  qv4l2 loaded fine but when I press play to get feed I get the green screen I was telling you, I tried what you said, the v4l-ctl -D and It was showing capturer device... :S what else could I try?
   <br> @maco1717
   xreal: Are DVB-T sticks with RTL2832U still state-of-the-art ?
   myself: for DVB or or SDR work? heh
   <br> I've never heard of anyone actually watching TV on one, that's novel
   xreal: <u>myself</u>: DVB
   <br> <u>myself</u>: I've got a RTL2832U for SDR.
   <br> IRC is dead, isn't it ?
   myself: no, you're just operating in a different frame of patience!
