[Kwintv] "Select device", "Select source"

[Vadim Tarassov]

Hallo George,

I found what was the problem - I missunderstood your instructions 
thinking that KDEDIR is required only for building. Now I can get 
qtvision to show my tv card in the "Select source" dialog, however it 
does not help a lot.

As you can imagine qtvision hangs. This problem has been reported once 
to the list, and switching from v4linux to Xv has been suggested as a 
workaround. I was trying dozen times to start qtvision somehow to see my 
tv card and to disable v4linux plugin, however without any success. When 
ever I press OK on the "Select source" dialog when my card is shown I am 
not able to use "settings->configure qtvision". When I click on 
"configure qtvision", program starts to hang.

If I don't press OK in "select source" dialog, I can get to "configure 
qtvision" and disable v4linux, however there is no chance than to get 
qtvision to find my tv card again.

Is there any possibility to get through all of this?

Best regards, vadim tarassov.
