Using the recent dvgrab hdv patch <https://init.linpro.no/pipermail/skolelinux.no/cinelerra/2006-November/008696.html> http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1703694&group_id=14103&atid=314103 I get the following results with Sony hdr-hc3
localhost hdv02 # /usr/local/bin/dvgrab --format mpeg2 --hdv --showstatus Found AV/C device with GUID 0x0800460104d89b7c Capture Started "dvgrab-002.m2t": 38.79 MB 373 frames timecode 00:00:35.24 date 2007.06.19 08:07:18 "dvgrab-002.m2t": 38.79 MB 373 frames timecode 00:00:35.24 date 2007.06.19 08:07:18 Capture Stopped Playback in Mplayer or VLC is badly interlaced Playback on Kaffeine is perfect With Cinelerra I'm getting bad playback ( 9 fps) with wrong aspect ratio regardless of options ( 4:3 )with preferances 1080i 1920x1080 rgb or yuva on AMD 64x2 2gb ram Sabayon Linux 3.4 loop2 I saw this related thread: http://osdir.com/ml/video.cinelerra-cv.general/2006-11/msg00217.html https://init.linpro.no/pipermail/skolelinux.no/cinelerra/2006-November/008696.html which improved the screen refresh from jerky stills to 9 fps (2nd link) What are some of your benchmarks. I think an hdmi capture interface would be incredible. Granted from tape it's allready compressed but as a camera to disk recorder would be extremely usefull.

Just a follow up. Here is an example of what I get for each frame when I use --showstatus ...
