The KesCom PG104 is similar to the Pico2000, but uses a Techwell TW6805A chip.
Installation
To use this capture card you need to compile the driver. For Ubuntu Server 12.04.03 LTS with 3.8 kernel the source can be found at [[1]].
sudo apt-get install git sudo apt-get install build-essential mkdir techwell cd techwell git clone git://gitorious.org/tw68/smokeyjoness-tw68-v2.git cd smokeyjoness-tw68-v2 make sudo make install sudo modprobe tw68
After compiling and "loading" the tw68 modules, you need to check that the modules are actually loaded (lsmod|grep tw). You should have the following output:
~$ lsmod |grep tw tw68 44633 2 videodev 86588 3 tw68 videobuf_dma_sg 18786 1 tw68 videobuf_core 25409 2 tw68,videobuf_dma_sg btcx_risc 13400 1 tw68
Issuing the dmesg command, you should see a "video device" found, labeled /dev/video0. This video device has channels from 0 to 3 for the 4 inputs.
