I finally figured it out. First, scantv -o .xawtv was what was needed to actually save the channel listing. The man pages mention that scantv defaults to stdout, whatever that's supposed to mean. And second, I needed to invoke xawtv like this... xawtv -c /dev/video0 This is one where the man page for it was a hindrance this whole time, as the instructions said that xawtv defaults to /dev/video0. Now to figure out streamer, so I can archive to a vcd the premier episode of Father of the Pride as well as my Mysterious Cities of Gold collection and a few other tapes before they degrade any further... :D -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
