And I hadn't -- I was typically loading the necessary modules by hand
when I needed them. But I've added it in, and now all the bttv modules
are loaded right away -- but I have both a WinTV card and the LML33 in
my system, so only the WinTV related modules are loaded, and accessed
via /dev/video0. After loading the modules for the LML33, it is on
/dev/video1.
I now see the input from my WinTV in the capture window -- which is
new and exciting, but even after I change the "Video Device" selection
under "Video Options" to "/dev/video1" I still only see what's coming
from the WinTV card (on /dev/video0). I tried quiting and restarting
LVS, and while the option was correctly recalled as /dev/video1, I'm
still getting video from /dev/video0. But, I primarily mention that
as a bug report -- since I'm planning to do most (but not all!) of my
capturing via dvgrab.

Okay, now that I've had some time at work to do more experiments, I
went to the "Edit Video" tab, and almost got something, but then
not quite. The problem is that I can only find things to load
edit-list files, but I don't have an edit-list yet, only lav-avi
files. Strangely, at first I was able to load a lav-avi file by
going to the "Add Scene" subtab clicking the up-arrow and selecting
my .avi file. That put a little image in one of the 6 black squares,
I clicked on that and "Add Scene" and now I had a little image in
the leftmost black square on the bottom. Pressing the play-arrow
didn't do anything though, so I switched to the "Editing" subtab
and clicked "[Start]" and segfault. I restarted and this happened
again.
Now though, I can't even get the avi file to load at all. At one
point I ended up rebooting, so this may have had an effect -- because I
ran "studio" and everything hung. So now, when I click on the up-arrow
under the "Add Scenes" tab it clearly wants an edit-list, and complains
to the shell if I choose the .avi file.
I've tried clicking on "New Editlist", but I don't see any new material,
or any way to load .avi files into the perhaps newly created editlist.
So, I'm still looking for hints!
And, I'm not sure whether this is relevant, since at the moment I'm
not worried about my mjped card, but here is what dmesg says about
it:
