Could you send me a single frame ?

Which mainboard, cpu and distribution do you use ?

Where did you find that post ?

I would guess that the datarate is simply to high. Lower the -q to 50,
and try again. 

If that does not work, you can download the zoran driver from the mjpeg
CVS,and try to load that zoran modules. But there should not bee that
much difference between the CVS version and the Kernel 2.6.9 zoran
driver.

Should work well. The upper case letter is the SVHS Input.

streamer is not able to capture from a zoran based card because the
zoran chipset is not able to deliver the format streamer could handle.
