When I use lavrec to create a movtar file, and then try to extract the
audio from the movtar file with lav2wav, it comes out "gurgly".  By
gurgly, imagine the filter a special effects man would use to make you
believe somebody was talking under water.

If I use lavrec to create an avi file, lav2wav extracts the audio just
fine.

Maybe movtar is not a good format.  I kinda like it because I am a *ix
geek and tar is very familiar to me.  :-)  But the real reason I want
to use movtar is that avi files suck, badly.  They are not readable
until they are finished writing (unlike an MPEG file for example) and
they have stupid 2G limits on filesizes.

Does quicktime solve any of this?  Is there any way to build the
lavtools with a quicktime library and headers rather than having to
point configure to a source pool for quicktime?

Thanx,
b.
