If you fire up xawtv, you can right click in the picture and a setup menu will appear. One of the selections is 'video source', and you can left click on that and select the input. Mine shows Television, Composite1, S-Video and Composite2. My card doesn't support s-video and composite 2, so selecting them doesn't do much... From the command line, you can do v4lctl -c $DEVICE setinput Television >/dev/null 2>&1 v4lctl -c $DEVICE setchannel 34 >/dev/null 2>&1 assuming $DEVICE is set to your WinTV card (probably /dev/video0 if that's the only video device on your system) to select the television input and set it to channel 34, then v4lctl -c $DEVICE snap jpeg 640x480 $filename >/dev/null 2>&1 will take a jpeg and save it in $filename.

Do I need these or does MH have basic capture built in? If so, how do I get video from my WinTV card?
