Does your VCR deliver a S-Video Signal ? What connector do you use on the DC10? If it does you have a problem with the Cable to the card or the VCR.
Try a input once the PAL Composite, so just change your recording command to something like that: lavrec -f a -i p -R m -c 1 -q 90 -d 2 /home/m/nomefile.avi The -i p, is important. Reducing the quality to 90-95 might help in certain situations. When recording fails. > This is the lavrec output: > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lavrec -f a -i P -R m -c 1 -q 100 -d 2 -v 1 > /home/m/nomefile.avi > INFO: [lavrec] Input Source: S-Video PAL That is the important line telling you that it records from the S-Video connector. > I play the file with totem, that normally works good.

Try adding the -U option. -d has nothing to do with the audio. Do you get a error message when you add that option ? If yes please post it. Do you have in alsa the oss emulation enabled ? Why do you want to record from the microphone input ? (-R m) Please connect it to the line in, and change the option to "-R l -s". The -s is for stereo. > Maybe these dmesg lines can help: > > [ 39.234747] ALSA > /build/buildd/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-2.6.24/debian/build/build-generic/sound/alsa-driver/pci/ac97/ac97_codec.c:2061: > AC'97 1 does not respond - RESET > [ 39.250719] ALSA > /build/buildd/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-2.6.24/debian/build/build-generic/sound/alsa-driver/pci/ac97/ac97_codec.c:2070: > AC'97 1 access is not valid [0xffffffff], removing mixer. > [ 39.250734] ALSA > /build/buildd/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-2.6.24/debian/build/build-generic/sound/alsa-driver/pci/ali5451/ali5451.c:1927: > ali mixer 1 creating error. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list Mjpeg-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
