That's odd.  I haven't seen that here... if the signal is too weak at
startup, xine seems to give up before launching, but if it isn't then
I get a picture.

I did notice it getting warm too... when I used it under Windows, it
didn't seem to get as warm, but usually the Pinnacle software would
crash within 15-20 minutes so maybe it's just running longer.


We can try other GPIO settings, they might hurt a bit yes (I see that
there are several GPIO values we might use, but in the end it doesn't
really differ from what windows does at that point). I'll get back to
it after adding support for eb1a:em2750 webcam devices during the next
1-2 days
