gkrellm is a rather nice GTK system monitor, but I now tried to verify the
results with top, I should have done this before posting, as I praised
commandline apps myself ;)
And well, top gave me more realistic values between 75 and 98 percent for
both avirec and avicap.
Obviously gkrellm is not really suited for this task. But what still makes
me wonder: I did get above 95 percent CPU with older versions of avicap in
gkrellm, now it only shows 2 percent. That's why I thought, that big
optimizations took place in avicap, but not in avirec. My fault, sorry.
BTW: I also like that XviD is now natively supported. I only have to find
the best encoder settings for realtime capture from TV-in.
