Input type "v4l" invalid

Postby paulschuld » 20 Dec 2003 20:34

Hi,

what am I doing wrong when I get the following messages starting vls with the command 'vls -vv -f /etc/vls.cfg':

VideoLAN Server v 0.5.3 (Dec 20 2003) - (c)1999-2003 VideoLAN

2003-12-20 20:27:22 [WARN/Vls] input doesn't exist

:(

My vls.cfg has a section in which I associate "tuner" with "v4l" like "webcam" is associated with "v4l" in http://www.videolan.org/doc/videolan-ho ... ml#AEN1075

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Paul

You are using a 0.5.3 release, it doesn't support v4l input.
Only CVS version support v4l input.

I am in the same error that vc were, I am installing VLS for v4l, already I used version CVS 0.5.5 for VLS, configured with ./bootstrap and ./configure --enable-v4l but continues giving to the error "Input type v4l invalid". You it more made something to eliminate this error?

I have exactly the same problem on debian and slackware.

I installed v4l2, compiled the kernel, compiled ivtv, compiled vls with the correct options, and I still get "v4l" input type invalid.


What gives?
