That's totally driver-related, lavrec/streamer don't know anything about
that. So I don't know, sorry. :-(.

This makes me think, are you using BTTV-0.8? Then, you need to use the
latest CVS of lavrec, lavrec in mjpegtools-1.6.0 is known not to work
with BTTV-0.8 (it's using 3 device-access-threads, and the BTTV-0.8
driver uses semaphores in such a way that that won't work). lavrec in
CVS uses 2 device-access-threads, and that works well...

Hope this helps,

Ronald
