Real world numbers: 1 hour 34 minutes of capture on a DC10+. Capture settings of 640x480 frame size, NTSC video, and 0.9.4 driver quality setting of 75. Audio capture on a SBLive at 48khz, 2 channel, 16 bit sample size. The resultant avi files (22 of them) total 40,042,683,356 bytes overall. So, 1h34m = 5,640 seconds. 40,042,683,356 bytes / 5,640 seconds = 7,099,766.55 bytes/second. 7,099,766.55 bytes/sec / 1024 = 6933.366 kbyte/second 6933.366 kbyte/second / 1024 = 6.771 MB/second of actual real capture rate to disk for everything, video, audio, and sync/marker data. And that's at a quality setting of 75, bumping that up to 100 does push lavrec very close to the 10mb/sec data rate to disk using a DC10+. ------------------------------------------------------- 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
