Hi, Not sure about "recommened", but adding the following rules to /etc/udev/rules.d/11-local.rules solved the issue for me KERNEL=="video?", SUBSYSTEM=="video4linux", ATTR{name}=="gspca*", NAME="video0", SYMLINK+="webcam" KERNEL=="video?", SUBSYSTEM=="video4linux", ATTR{name}=="BT878*", NAME="video1", SYMLINK+="tvcard" (Change the ATTR(name) according to your device driver names).

It seems to work, but dmesg gives me: [ 13.510547] udevd[522]: kernel-provided name 'video0' and NAME= 'video1' disagree, please use SYMLINK+= or change the kernel to provide the proper name [ 13.581115] udevd[516]: kernel-provided name 'video1' and NAME= 'video0' disagree, please use SYMLINK+= or change the kernel to provide the proper name For me it seems as if udevd complains about what I want to achieve. Changing the device names. Christoph -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Christoph, My solution for this since version 10.X is to install the TV card two times in Yast with the same specifications. That gives me a video0 and video1 without any problems. For the TV I use video1 and for the camera (Skype etc. ) video0. Works like a charm.

Christoph Hi,
Somehow I did not pay attention to these messages. Strange, it seems working correctly (I've never seen reverse order of video cards since I've defined these rules) in spite of these messages.
