Yes, please do. I was suprised that record-v4l.pl was moved to
obsolete since I could not find any other utilities that could be used
in a convenient way to do for example:
record-v4l2 -P 4 --no-record
record-v4l2 -P comp --no-record
record-v4l2 -P comp -P SVCD
But maybe some other utility will have the capability to specify named
parameter sets in a configuration file and use them conveniently. My
specification file for the above is:
[SVCD]
StreamType=12
VideoWidth=480
VideoHeight=576
BitrateMode=0
Bitrate=2000000
PeakBitrate=2250000
AudioBitmask=232
[4]
Frequency=203250
Channel=TV4
[comp]
InputName=Composite
InputNum=0
DirectoryFormatString=%I-%d
MSPInput=1
MSPOutput=1
