How to change the Video-in format to PAL model

Ans:

You will got asynchronous image when you load Bttv driver for BT878 capture function,
It was Bttv driver bug cause of the error image
Because Bttv driver can't auto-switch the BT878 register when you change to PAL model

Thereby We should configure bttv driver correct parameter,Please follow the below procedure to done!!

  • Remove the Bttv driver
#rmmod bttv 
  • Reload the Bttv driver and provide the correct parameter for PAL
#modprobe bttv pll=1,1,1,1
  • Run your capture application ,for example we used the xawtv
#xawtv
  • Select the PAL model
