I've got it working. In short, I use this command lavrec --software-encoding --format=a --input=P --use-read --geometry=320x240 --audio-source=l --audio-volume=100 --time=10 test.avi
This is using the loopback cable that goes into the line-in in my sound-card. Using a sound-mixer, set the recording source to "Line" (I use rexima), and make the volume about 90% Note that I have used --input=P. I am recording from the Composite1 channel, but P is for SVHS. The key thing to note is that these letters are dual-purpose. I have a BT878 card, and if you look at the second part of each latter p - PAL through Composite or 1st Bt8x8 input P - PAL through SVHS- or 2nd Bt8x8 input t - PAL through TV-tuner- or 3rd Bt8x8 input you will see that we are using the 2nd Bt8x8 input (which is Composite). I think the documentation could point this out somewhat better. The only problem I have now is that playback (with lavplay) is rather quiet. -- Cameron Kerr Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://nzgeeks.org/cameron/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
