hello viktor,

yes, i can watch tv with the GUI, selecting the tv card in the
directshow tab works. starting vlc via commandline works as well.

here are two examples that are working with a pinnacle card:

select via directshow tab in the GUI is working:
dshow:// :dshow-vdev="Pinnacle PCTV 110i BDA Analog Capture"
:dshow-adev="Pinnacle PCTV 110i BDA Analog A" :dshow-size=""
:dshow-caching=200 :dshow-chroma="" :dshow-fps=0.000000 :no-dshow-config
:no-dshow-tuner :dshow-tuner-channel=1 :dshow-tuner-country=0
:dshow-tuner-input=0

starting via command line works as well:
vlc.exe --intf=http --http-host=127.0.0.1:7999 dshow://
--dshow-vdev="Pinnacle PCTV 110i BDA Analog Capture"
--dshow-adev="Pinnacle PCTV 110i BDA Analog A" --dshow-tuner-channel=1
:sout=#duplicate{dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=:1234}}


starting it via the telnet interface with the same options do not work
new test broadcast
setup test input dshow://
setup test output #duplicate{dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=:1234}}
setup test option dshow-vdev="Pinnacle PCTV 110i BDA Analog Capture"
setup test option dshow-adev="Pinnacle PCTV 110i BDA Analog A"
setup test option dshow-tuner-channel=1
setup test enabled
control test play

is producing the following logging message:
[00000284] logger interface: Using the logger interface module...
