Hi guys, I'm looking for a simple gui app to capture video from either a PCI/USB TV tuner card. Both Kino and DVGrab only seem to work with FireWire devices. It needn't be fancy - just capture and be able tocut/copy/paste/delete parts of the captured stream.

You can use mplayer -dumpstream to get the video to stream.dump file. Then use avidemux2 for editing. -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny) Even the most advanced equipment in the hands of the ignorant is just a pile of scrap. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

There's also MythTV (though it may be more than you're looking for). The packages can be found on Packman's site. http://en.opensuse.org/Additional_YaST_Package_Repositories#Packman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

If you can get a Hauppauge card such as PVR-150 installed with ivtv driver, capturing is as simple as cat /dev/video0 > myvideo.mpg For editing, avidemux is extremely easy.

Thanks for all who replied (for some reason I didn't get the last day's worth of mails from the list - sorry for breaking the thread). The important part of my question was "simple gui" - this is for the parents who have not yet come over their fear of typing. I am quite happy with using mencoder for capturing, but it really scares them. What I'm looking for is a simple application that would allow them to view the video stream, and hit record, hit stop (and save and whatever), while sill watching the video stream. Basic video editing would be a bonus, but not required. Thanks Hans -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

So, then go with Alain's suggestion - MythTV. Does exactly this. As well as you may cut parts of the file out, etc (i.e. basic editing). -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny) Even the most advanced equipment in the hands of the ignorant is just a pile of scrap. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
