Hi all, I'm new to the forum and I hope you could help me.

I finally configure my lifeView Flytv-platinum (under ubuntu) from witch I grab signals coming from composite input. This is working by:
"mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:input=2:noaudio -nojoystick"

Now I need different task: capture a single image (current frame) without open live windows.
In pratice I want to grab first frame of input than save him (e.g. jpeg-type or tif-type) without open any windows.
Is it possible? What is command line? I try to read manual, but I don't find solution.

Thanks a lot,
