Greetings ... I have have had my DC10+ card for many years and even used to lurk on these mail list, but things got busy and I almost forgot this stuff exists. Well, I'm back and I have a few questions I'm hoping that I might get some help with ... Thank in advance.
Okay, if I try to record from my old Sony CCD-TVR78E PAL Hi8 handy cam using the following command line ... lavrec -v 1 -f a -i p -U -R l -s -q 85 -d 11 --geometry 768x576+0+0 test%02d.avi The sound is horrible. Very tinny and distorted. My system can't use mmap, so I have to use -U (--use-read) ... I have tried recording from VLC, but can only get it working in the GUI, would like to try and get it working from the command line too, but I'll work on that ... And the sound not so good ... Tried for a very short time to get mencoder to work from the command line, but I read that not many people have use or get the V4L interface working ... But it does seem to work, a little, on VLC. So, I think that first set on questions I might get, would get do you think your sound card is not so great ... Tested that ... I can record audio from the sound card with no problem with arecord -f cd -v -t wav test.wav Plays back is perfect. So, I was thinking maybe the capturing from the DC10+ was playing with the sound, maybe IRQ or something ... But, opening two terminals and doing arecord -f cd -v -t wav test.wav in one and in the other lavrec -v 1 -f a -i p -a 0 -q 85 -d 11 --geometry 768x576+0+0 test%02d.avi Both of these play fine ... I'll just never be able to combine the files and get the audio to sync with the video ... So, I'm hoping that I could get some advice and crack this nut ... Some other details that might be needed, but I'm not sure ... ASUS A8N Delux Motherboard ...
