Hello Everybody I am trying to install appGRABBER V5 usb-capture-video to convert VRC tapes to DIGITAL with my Linux Mint 17.1 I did all the steps: lsusb first told me: Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1c88:0007 Somagic, Inc. SMI Grabber (EasyCAP DC60+ clone) (no firmware) [SMI-2021CBE] when i installed: somagic-easycap-tools_1.1_i386.deb and somagic-easycap_1.1_i386.deb with Gdebi and I installed the .sys file of course i got the /lib/firmware/somagic_firmware.bin then, after "sudo somagic-init" lsusb tells me: Bus 002 Device 004: ID 1c88:003c Somagic, Inc. SMI Grabber (EasyCAP DC60+ clone) [SMI-2021CBE] I plug everything in the usb.. I open VLC, SMPlayer even CHeese. but i only got to see video-0 which is my webcam.. Why can i see an video-1 for example to choose this usb-device? I am lost, i don't understand what should i do now... Please, could you tell us in the GUIDE? Thanks a lot. my dmesg: [ 368.848089] usb 2-3: new high-speed USB device number 3 using ehci-pci [ 368.984777] usb 2-3: New USB device found, idVendor=1c88, idProduct=0007 [ 368.984781] usb 2-3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [ 368.984784] usb 2-3: Product: SM-USB 007 [ 368.984790] usb 2-3: Manufacturer: Somagic, Inc.

[ 606.892860] usb 2-3: SerialNumber: SMIGRABBER9876543210 and this is very weird because when i tried to open it in TVtime ( i installed with software center) when i choose NTSC only my webcam (i am with a laptop with webcam integrated) appears as device... and when i choose PAL...FRAMES TOO SHORT FROM uvcvideo "I can't open device /dev/video0" I don't know what to do... i need another device /dev/video1... and i need to know why it doesn't appears if i did all the steps well without errors.. Please, more information, or help. Thanks a lot.

hi, it is working as designed. the code is basically two parts, kernel code and user code. if you want it to show up in /dev/video1 compile the kernel module. In the user code I run: #somagic-init that uploads the firmware (like you did above) #somagic-capture | mplayer -vf yadif,screenshot -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo "pal:format=uyvy:fps=25" -aspect 4:3 - displays the capture. You can use vlc or ffmpeg to write it to file etc
