xawtv no color


Hey all,
Using xawtv to check if my card/ driver is working (using to capture images for robot arm) anyway, for my color camera, I am only getting black and white pics. Any ideas why?

using the wrong video type? ntsc / pal / pal-m etc... also do the contrast controls have any effect?

Nah, only pal-nc is working at all and contrast etc. don't do anything. NTSC/ SECAM seem to be colour but the picture is all over the show. (Much fussiness).
