cx231xx video grabber

Sat Feb 21, 2015 10:26 am

Hi there
since 3 days, i am trying to run hyperion with a external video source.
it seems like i have a video grabber with the cx231xx chipset, and it is recognized in /dev/video0 but i am not able to take a screenshot either with hyperion-v4l2 or mplayer
hyperion-v4l2 hangs and mplayer echos something like that:
v4l2: ioctl set format failed: Invalid argument
Selected input hasn't got a tuner!

hope someone can help me
thanks

and dmesg echos tons of that:

Looks like no Drivers are loaded by default, possibly unsupported in Linux

i already was on that site and maybe i'm just blind :| but i cannot find any download link for that driver, just the information, that it is compatible through the cx231xx driver...

so the question is, where can i download that driver?
