I think I'm getting closer; this is the script I'm using to record via the command line:
By enabling the cd mixer playback shouldn't I be hearing the tv program when this command is executed? So far I can only hear a "hiss" that switches on/off when the tv card is accessed. #!/bin/sh mencoder='/usr/bin/mencoder' channel=$1 width=320 height=240 adevice=/dev/alsa output=/home/tv/test.avi # set cd volume to 80% and mute playback amixer cset numid=21 80% #amixer cset numid=20 off amixer cset numid=20 on # so we can test if it's working # capture source CD amixer cset numid=26 1 amixer cset numid=27 on $mencoder tv:// -tv driver=v4l:input=0:norm=pal:channel=$channel:width=$width:height=$height:outfmt=yuy2:device=/dev/video0:adevice=$adevice:audiorate=32000 buffersize=64 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=5000:keyint=30 -oac mp3lame -lameopts br=128:cbr:mode=3 -ffourcc divx -endpos 409 -o $output # unmute playback amixer cset numid=20 on # capture source CD off amixer cset numid=27 off [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ amixer info Card default 'IXP'/'ATI IXP rev 0 with AD1888 at 0xfe800000, irq 209' Mixer name : 'Analog Devices AD1888' Components : 'AC97a:41445368' Controls : 43 Simple ctrls : 29 The TV sound ouput is plugged into the CD in socket on the motherboard. I am using the right channel, because if I watch tv in tvtime and run amixer cset numid=20 off then the sound is cut off. So it seems that the sound isn't getting output from the tv card at all when using mencoder. :( Amadeus ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
