This is now working for au0828, but now vivi is broken... That worked fine with your previous patch. I'm getting: $ xawtv This is xawtv-3.102, running on Linux/x86_64 (3.9.0-rc1-tschai) ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYMENU(id=134217731;index=2;name="Menu Item 1";reserved=0): Invalid argument vid-open-auto: using grabber/webcam device /dev/video0 libv4l2: error setting pixformat: Device or resource busy ioctl: VIDIOC_S_FMT(type=VIDEO_CAPTURE;fmt.pix.width=384;fmt.pix.height=288;fmt.pix.pixelformat=0x34524742 [BGR4];fmt.pix.field=INTERLACED;fmt.pix.bytesperline=1536;fmt.pix.sizeimage=442368;fmt.pix.colorspace=SRGB;fmt.pix.priv=0): Device or resource busy Note that the QUERYMENU error is harmless, although it would be nice if xawtv would understand menu controls with 'holes' in the menu list. The 'Device or resource busy' errors are new and I didn't have them in your previous version.
