My command line is: mencoder -tv driver=v4l2:input=3:adevice=/dev/dsp:forceaudio tv:// -ovc lavc -oac pcm -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=3000:keyint=50 -endpos 700mb -vf pp=lb -o out01.avi
Then I merge or cut the 700mb segments with avidemux. Convert the rest to dvd. Like this: #! /bin/sh mkfifo stream.yuv nice mplayer -vo yuv4mpeg -nosound -noframedrop -noaspect -vf scale=352:576,pp=de/tn:1:2:3,hqdn3d $1 & cat stream.yuv | buffer -m 10M | nice mpeg2enc -f 8 -o video.m2v nice mplayer -vc null -vo null -ao pcm -noframedrop $1 nice sox -t wav audiodump.wav -t wav /dev/stdout speed 1 lowpass 8000 | \ cat /dev/stdin | nice mp2enc -s -r 48000 -b 224 -o audio.m2a mplex -f 8 audio.m2a video.m2v -o $1_vhs.mpg rm stream.yuv audio.m2a video.m2v audiodump.wav After some testing this seemed to be the best quality/space ratio. -- Lehmeier Michael <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.
