I have problems to activating grab images in vdr 1.4.2 and kernel 2.6.17.11. I have readed old recently posts about this problem:
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2006-June/009741.html
It talks about v4l driver problem and says installing mercurial driver solves the problem. The post is from june. I can't grab (451 Grab image failed) and have video for linux compiled into kernel (not as module).
This means that the problem is not solved in kernel 2.6.17.11 and I have to install mercurial v4l as kernel module? Is there any problem if I have the v4l into the kernel or I have to compile kernel with v4l as module?
Thanks.
Hi again,
I have installed the last mercurial v4l version and the grab command still not working. Anyone knows what could be the problem?
Thanks!.

Did you specify enabling the grab function in your vdr startup command? For example:
OPTIONS="-l 3 --grab=/tmp"

Yes, I start with ./vdr -g /tmp

If you are using softdevice, I'll have to mention that grab is not supported with softdevice.
