The command:

Will display input via composite2 on the screen but I want to save to a
file on disk. I presume -dumpfile & -dumpstream will do what I want but
What alteration do I make to achieve this?
> Encode from a tuner (specify a format with -vf format):
mencoder -tv driver=v4l:width=640:height=480 tv:// -o tv.avi -ovc raw
is what the mplayer/mencoder man page suggests
plus whatever other paramaters you needed from your mplayer line, I would
suggest the following, combinig your mplayer line with the above:
mencoder -tv input=2:driver=v4l:width=640:height=480 tv:// -o tv.avi -ovc raw
That saved to disk, but the playback is jerky, and no sound. I can also
save from the tuner, but the playback is the same
With mplayer, I can now output to the screen from both tuner and comp2,
but the last msg before the viewer starts is 'Audio: no sound'. I have
tried various -ao options without any change to the output.
There is sound coming from the tv card. I tested with speakers plugged
into it instead of the output from the box.
The sound is fine with avi files from my camera.
Both inputs work fine with tvtime.
The manual chapter you pointed me to Nick is identical to the earlier
one I have in my distro, thanks.
you won't be watching at the same time, but you can run simultaneously
mplayer tv.avi
if you cpu can hack encoding and decoding at the same time.
Cant handle this.
