Hi, I am using my TV card's (Leadtek Winfast Expert 2000) composite input to record the output of my VTR, the sound is connected to the line-in of my sound chip (integrated Realtek ALC889A), so I record the sound from alsa. My problem is that I get lots of frame skips and also lots of duplicate frame messages during the video capture. I made some tests, and it seems that the audio skew compensation is causing this, for a copule of frames it overcompensates the skew, than finds it's way back to the original state, and this cause a copule of frame duplicates, and then roughly the same amount of frame skips. Redefining MAX_SKEW_DELTA in stream/tvi_v4l2.c to 0.04 fixes the problem, but is that really the proper way to fix this bug? I am using this command line by the way: /usr/bin/mencoder tv:// -tv \ alsa:adevice=hw.0,0:amode=1:input=1:normid=3:norm=PAL -oac mp3lame -ovc \ lavc -o test.avi Regards, Marton
