Erm, just a tip. If you must use a BTTV-card for capturing (you really
should look for some other solution if you do captures on a regular
basis...) you must be aware of an intensional(!) bug inside the driver:

YUV 4:2:0 is broken with BTTV-cards. YUV 4:2:0 doesn't retain correct
interlacing on BTTV-cards. For progressive material (as movies in
PAL-land generaly seem to be) this is no problem. But if it is
interlaced or telecined (very rare in PAL-countries but not impossible!)
then the chroma channels are completly messed up!

*You do not want to record 4:2:0 with these cards.*

You do want 4:2:2 recordings and as far as I know lacrec can not record
4:2:2 with these cards. (A long time ago when I must use such a card, I
always used mencoder for recordings doing them 4:2:2 and then scaling
them to 4:2:0).
