The cause is "[PATCH 10/17] media: common: saa7146: fall back to V4L2_PIX_FMT_BGR24". Can you drop that patch and test again? It's really a tvtime bug since drivers are allowed to either reject an unsupported pixelformat (the old behavior) or replace it with a supported pixelformat (the new behavior). And tvtime only supports the old behavior. > > Using qv4l while tvtime is running doesn't work and sometimes > causes freezing of both programs (on all drivers). Are you just starting qv4l2 when tvtime is running? Or trying to stream? Do you see messages in the kernel log? I couldn't reproduce this. Since tvtime is streaming, qv4l2 shouldn't be able to do anything since all attempts to change something should result in EBUSY.
