Thank you for the input,
i finally switched to use lavrec instead of streamer like it is described in Bernhard Praschingers How To to record avi's that split automatically after 1,6Gig.
As I mentioned in an earlier mail I already tried to use lavrec but got some errors on
1. undetectable audio device (...as I mentioned i am using alsa with SIS AC97 onboard soundcard)
that i could solve with the option --use-read
and
2. video device error
which i solved with using --software-encoding since my old Hauppauge is obviously not the right hardware to do straight mpeg recording.
So this is how my final record scripts currently looks like:
#!/bin/bash v4lctl setstation $3 lavrec -t $2 --software-encoding -B --input=p --geometry=480x576+0+0 --quality=75 --audio-bitrate=48000 --stereo --use-read $1%02d.avi
that would be launched like
./record film 7200 RTL
to record a 2 hours film (7200s) on tv tuner input (p - for pal) on TV channel "RTL", record it in split chunks of 1,6Gig (default...) as film01.avi filme02avi and so on.
Regards,
Jan
