Hi,

I am currently using VDR with a Nexus-S FF card in an NTSC environment. For a long time, I could never get the correct tv standard (NTSC) while trying to watch television via VDRAdmin. I recently noticed that once I stream VDR using VLC and its v4l interface, something in /dev/video0 gets set to NTSC, because from then on, the video is correctly set to NTSC mode and I can watch television via the VDRAdmin television interface.

Basically there are two ways to select NTSC mode: - v4lctl setnorm NTSC - module parameter 'tv_standard' for dvb-ttpci

modinfo dvb-ttpci: ... parmtype: tv_standard:int parm: tv_standard:TV standard: 0 PAL (default), 1 NTSC ...
