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.
