This is what i used to changed the input

v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video1 --set-input 4

With this 2.6.35 gives me perfect video/audio. Kernel 3.10.7 on the
other hand gives good video but distorted audio. On this cards primary
input (/dev/video0), i use the radio so i cant use input 2 of this
card. My composite cable is connected to the 'extra-input' card which
should be composite 2.

My understanding is input 4 is #2 composite, and input 2 is #1
composite. Is that not right?

This is what i tried in kernel 2.6.35:

1. v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video1 --set-input 2
Video input set to 2 (Composite 1: ok)
No video

2. v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video1 --set-input 4
Video input set to 4 (Composite 2: ok)
Good video

As i mentioned in kernel 2.6.35, mythtv/mplayer give me both good
video/audio if i use 2 above.

What inputs do you think i should use with v4l2-ctl?

Your know one user now!. Yes it is for personal use. It was for my old
folks who live in another country and i manage their mythtv/htpc
remotely.
