Hi,

Have you tried the correct driver (v4l2) yet? 

> input=2:norm=PAL:width=320:height=240:

Have you tried width=384:height=288 or width=360:height=288 yet? I can imagine that 
this is a little bit faster.

Have you tried mjpeg yet? This will produce bigger files, but with (IMHO) less CPU. 
You could transcode them to mpeg4 afterwards.
