 From my guess you use a bttv based card ?
If you use a bttv based card, you need to use a command like that:
lavrec -f a -i p -g 352x288 -q 80 -R l --software-encoding test.avi

The important things for a bttv card are the -g and --software-encoding 
options. You might encounter problems with the audio, for testing 
purposes you can disable it with -a 0.
The -i option works different on a bttv based card. -i p means the 1st 
Bt8x8 input. Take a look at the lavrec for more info.

streamer can also create mjpeg encoded AVI's.

auf hoffentlich bald,
