And what command do you use for encoding?
They are the actual commands used, except for the bitrates and interlace: I can get the command lines with "ps" but much easier executing kino in a terminal (it dumps a lot of lines on the terminal). > > > mpeg2enc -v 0 -f 8 -I 1 -n p -a 2 -o '/tmp/prova'.mpv > > mp2enc -v 0 -r 48000 -b 224 -o '/tmp/prova'.mp2' > > mplex -v 0 -f 8 -o '/tmp/prova'.mpeg '/tmp/prova'.mpv '/tmp/prova'.mp2' > > > > I only modify the bitrate (9000k for video, 128k for audio).

That looks very strange. > That snow is not in the recorded movie you want to encode ? I must admint that, if I watch the movie directly with kino, some snow is there, but not so much, it seems. But if catch a snapshot with kino, even from adjacent frames, no snow appears in the snapshots. > > When you record to DV AVI Type 2 You get AVI Files.

I guess that kino pipes a stream to mpeg2enc which is already filtered with some other command that introduces the snow: in fact, if I issue the following: lav2yuv /tmp/prova002.avi | mpeg2enc -v 0 -f 8 -I 1 -n p -a 2 -o '/tmp/prova.mpv' I get a video with no snow. Unfortunately, kino creates the pipe internally, so I don't know what is the command that it uses and that introduces the snow. But this way the problem is clearly identified as a kino problem, don't you think? I'll got there now.
