No - describes the procedure for dc10 dc10+ dc30 buz an lm - cards. With the Marvel-cards you can only either watch TV on your monitor or record. You can only watch TV while recording if you have a second Monitor. I think this is the price for the integrated tuner: lavrec must gain control over the tuner when it wants to record and any "watch-application" can also only work if it's in control of the tuner. The other cards get the signal and thus you can easily see, what they get - it does not disturb the cards. The only thing you can't do with dc10 and the like cards: Starting or closing say xawtv during recording. That's also easy to see why: When say xawtv starts it want's to setup the card - and that's bad, since the card is recording. If say xawtv closes it want's to close the data stream. Both is poison for the recording-process. regards Wolfgang ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
