If you've successfully installed your card, you can view video form Video In on your display using [[http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=xawtv&searchon=names&exact=1&suite=all&section=all| xawtv]] program, or save video stream by lavrec utility from [[http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net/|MJPEG Project]] (You will have to build it yourself, as there is no mjpeg in Debial repository) If you've successfully installed your card, you can view video form Video In on your display using [[http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=xawtv&searchon=names&exact=1&suite=all&section=all| xawtv]] program, or save video stream by lavrec utility from [[http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net/|MJPEG Project]] (You will have to build it yourself, as there is no mjpeg in Debian repository)

You can play video through DC10 Video Out using mplayer, but to do it you have to build it with zoran (synonym for zr36067) support. To do it, load mplayer source and mplayer's build dependencies:

{{{
$ sudo apt-get build-dep mplayer
$ sudo apt-get source mplayer
}}}

Then we should add zoran support option to build files. To do it open rules file from debian directory
{{{
vi mplayer-*/debian/rules # Use any editor you like instead of vi
}}}
Find line that starts from "DEB_BUILD_CONFIGURE=", add "--enable-zr --enable-libavcodec_a" to the list of options in that line, save file, and exit.

After it stat bulding:
{{{
$ cd mplayer-* ; sudo dpkg-buildpackage; cd ..
}}}

If building is successfully complete, install the package:
{{{
$ sudo dpkg -i mplayer_*.deb
}}}

Now you can play your video into your DC10 video output:
{{{
$ mplayer -vo zr Your_Video_File.mpeg
}}}

Installing

Modern kernels (at least 2.6.26 2.6.29) do not properly autodetect zr36067 cards, so to run this card one should unload zr36067 module and then load it again with card=N option. For miroVIDEO DC10 N should be 1 (for new version of card) or 0 (for old one): 

# rmmod zr36067 
# modprobe zr36067 card=1

If module was successfully loaded, video0 device was added to your /dev : 

# ls /dev/video[0-9]
/dev/video0

To make this module correctly loaded on boot-time, add zr36067 to module blacklist, to prevent incorrect auto-loading, and add zr36067 with card=N option into /etc/modules, in order to properly load the module: 

# echo "blacklist zr36067" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
# echo "zr36067 card=1" >> /etc/modules

Viewing/Recording

If you've successfully installed your card, you can view video form Video In on your display using xawtv program, or save video stream by lavrec utility from MJPEG Project (You will have to build it yourself, as there is no mjpeg in Debian repository)
