    hello all,

    under my capture list, i cannot change the input from camera 1 to automatic.

    InputSelect the video input of your device. 'Automatic' keeps the value chosen by the v4l2 interface.

    try this



    apt-cache search firmware


    find these 2

    1. hdmi2usb-fx2-firmware - FX2 firmware for hdmi2usb board development
    2. fxload - Firmware download to EZ-USB devices

    and execute them



    code to install if found

    apt-get install hdmi2usb-fx2-firmware

    apt-get install fxload

    RE: Videograbber (HDMI to USB 2.0) not shown on Hyperion nor Raspbian
    don't get crazy, first in terminal/ssh >> lsusb     dmesg

    is the capturing device visible there, no? probably first need a update.
    (its visible after reboot? then turn off the USB capture in Hyperion and On again, save and repeat> seems to be a bug because i have the same in 2.10)


    update:
    in terminal: follow up these commands.

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get upgrade

    stil nothing, then upgrade your firmware. but first try this
    after that with no dice>>

    try this


    apt-cache search firmware

    find these 2

    From alpha10 onwards there is no „automatic“. You are presented with the devices discovered by the system. Automatic was just a workaround before. Some devices itself report them as camera, but that is just to the fact how the vendor presents them.

    Check as outlined above with, if your device is detracted.

    You also might disconnect the grabber, refresh the grabber screen. Then either no grabber discovered or your camera should be presented. If you now connect your grabber, refresh the screen again, our grabber should show up in addition. If there is no additional grabber presented you need to get your grabber recognized by the system.

    all sorted now , it wasn't the programming but the installation for some reason my amp was nlocking signal to the capture device all working now..
