if i understand correctly, you are using the three (red, white, yellow) rca banana plug connections.
if so, this would be a "composite" connection for xawtv (not ntsc or pal)
i have the Hauppage WinTV-PVR-150 and am trying to get it to run with the livecd (no install). when i run xawtv, i select ntsc, then have tried us-bcast and us-cable, then it says "the installation was aborted. dyu want to start xawtv anyway?" i click yes and it doesnt start. im mostly trying to use my gamecube which is hooked up to the tricolor ports. any help would be appreciated. also im the epitome of a linux newb.

i dont have that option.
Here's my suggestion
look at your .xawtv config file in your home directory
your input should have an entry for norm= and for input=
change input=Composite0
change norm=PAL
This is what I had to do to get input from a webcam
