What's the problem?
You didn't tell mencoder when to stop recording, so it continues untill the end of the DVB stream is found (ie. never) In my own personal scripts (not freevo related) I use the parameter -endpos ro tell mencoder when to stop. like this: #!/bin/sh TIME="00:40:00" #time to record in HH:MM:SS mencoder tv:// -tv "channel=$CHANNEL:width=768:height=576:outfmt=I420:alsa:driver=v4l2" -vop scale=640:480,pp=md,crop=756:566:6:8 -vc rawi420 -oac mp3lame -lameopts mode=3:abr:br=96 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=2000"$HIGHQ" -endpos "$TIME" -o "$FILE" -quiet I hope this helps.
