[ivtv-users] cx18: horizontal sync issue with analog composite 1 input

[Tom Ryan]

Well, it worked good for a day and then started sync issues again. We have narrowed the issue down to the particular device connected to the analog composite input (a sony SSC-DC374 camera). If we connect a vcr or a sony handycam to the cable, all is perfect. If we connect a tv (instead of the card) to the cable, the output from the SSC is perfect.

The camera has an AGC (automatic gain correction) as well as a level adjustment. We have tried adjusting them to various levels and settings to no avail. (We have not worked the full gamut though :)

Any ideas, an option to the module load, etc that we're missing???

Thanks!

Tom

Sorry to post so soon, I fixed it by upping the gain on the cards.

Thanks!
