My Sony HDR-FX7E HDV camcorder is connected via Firewire (Sony i.Link)
to record standard 1080i50 HDV video, 1440x1080, 25 Mbps (.M2T).
I hope to get help to cleanup the codelines to solve the following issues:
1)
Testing first the FFmpeg Devices Documentation's codeline to
"Grab and record the input of a FireWire DV/HDV device, using a packet
buffer of 100000 packets if the source is HDV"
https://www.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-devices.html#Examples-3
results in a highly compressed video with bitrate only 1106 kbits/s
a) Why so when the standard .M2T is 25 Mbps?
b) There are also warnings regarding streams 0, 3, 4 ?
c) Consider increasing the value for the 'analyzeduration', 'probesize'?

a) Adding "-c copy" solves the output bitrate = input bitrate = 25 Mbps
c) Trying to increase the value for the 'analyzeduration' (0) and
'probesize' are not successful?
