Hi Josef,
I don't see what video codec it should digitize to. Perhaps it can't
handle the raw stream?
Here are two commands I use to digitize from my AVI capture card.
mencoder -tv
driver=v4l:norm=ntsc:width=640:height=480:input=1:adevice=/dev/dsp1:immediatemode=0:audiorate=32000:forceaudio
\
-rawaudio rate=32000 -ovc lavc -lavcopts
vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=2500 -oac lavc \
tv:// -o out.avi
ffmpegrec -d /dev/dsp1 -r 32000 -N 64 -s -v /dev/video0 \
-norm NTSC -input Composite1 -ff mpeg \
-vc mpeg4 -w 640 -h 480 -H 75 -M 40 -deint bilin -vb 6000 \
-o out.mpg
I don't get any dropped frames.
