I got it to record last night without hiccup for about 70 minutes.
I then was able to try out glav, and it seems to do what I want, which is
excellent. I always had trepedation about using a sysetm that used multiple
files becoz I worried about the loss when the old file is closed, and the
new file is opened.

I may well have been experiencing the BP6 bug rather than anything caused
by lavrec (though it wasn't pushing the system hard...~ 30% CPU with 90%
MJPEG quality)

I'll take a look at the QT capabilities.

v4l. I'm wanting to backup our old camcorder stuff from a VCR, but since my
CPU's are relatively slow, I can't do realtime MPEG/DivX conversion. Which
is why I was looking at OpenDML AVI's to then be able to take my time in 
the conversion one I have good a good quality input on the HD. But I'll
take a loko at starting with a QT movie and chopping out some stuff and then
doing a VCD/DivX export.

Thanx
