Yes. > Can you tell me the last kernel version that worked for you? Sorry, it never worked before: After accessing /dev/vbi the computer locked up after some time: no keyboard, only hard reset. Might be related to that it is a dual P3-600. I just tried it again yesterday to see if the situation with VBI improved with the updated which went into 2.6.13-rc6 compared to the situation half a year ago. > >kernel BUG at drivers/media/common/saa7146_video.c:741! > > 739 fmt = format_by_fourcc(dev,fh->video_fmt.pixelformat); > 740 /* we need to have a valid format set here */ > 741 BUG_ON(NULL == fmt); > > This sanity check is failing.

Please feel free to contact my. Turn around might by long, since the PC with DVB is at home without internet access, which I only have at work.
