Re: KWorld DVB-T 210SE - Capture only in Black/White

[Ian Davidson <id012c3076@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Arrrrgh!

My capture has gone back to Black and White.

Since being able to capture video in colour, I have been attempting to 
install mjpegtools.  Today, having been pointed at the livna repository, 
I have succeeded.  When I tried a video capture (for regression testing 
purposes), I found that it was, once again, Black and White.

Having said that, I get occasional glimpses of colour - and when I do, 
it is the real colour of whatever the camera is pointing at.  Having 
made a brief study, it would seem that occasional frames get colour at 
the top half of the picture.  I have checked (broken and reconnected) 
the connections between the camera and the computer, but is does not 
seem to make any difference.

Any ideas where I go from here?
