Disclaimer: I know nothing about Pinnacle video cards (I have an Adaptec avc2010 pci card which works perfectly under linux). Surely if you want to capture the digital video stream produced by the card, you just work out the name of the raw output device which the card produces (/dev/avcap0 in my case, but it might be /dev/video or something else for you) and then run: cat /dev/yourDeviceHere > yourNewVideoFileHere For me, the line I use to capture video (with my adaptec avc2010) is: cat /dev/avcap0 > capture.mpg (but that's because my card produces a compressed mpeg2 stream, so I use the file extension .mpg). This way, I get _exactly_ what the card is producing (I edit mpeg2 stream on linux using projectX, but that's another story).
