You're clearly missing something but with information you're giving it's really impossible to say what. It's interesting that there appears to be nothing in the kernel drivers later than the kernel 3.6.0.5. The output of a search for easycap is shown below.
hi yougant did you ever solve this problem? I'm trying to get an easycap dc60 usb to work in fedora 20 but I'm getting errors and brick walls. Google gives info of an Stk1160 driver but I can't find a download link anywhere. Thank if you can shed any light.
