Unfortunately none of the output 'multimedia' file formats that we currently 
support - .mov/.mp4, or .avi - are very good at supporting the recording of 
accurate timestamp information along with each frame, so they are not very well 
suited for the purpose of recording incoming streams for later re-streaming.  
(The Matroska file format is much better for this, and someday I hope to 
support recording into Matroska files (we can already stream from such files).)

If you're recording incoming streams only for later re-streaming (i.e., you 
don't also plan to play the files locally using a video player), then I suggest 
just coming up with your own simple file format that records a timestamp (i.e., 
presentation time) and frame size, along with each frame's data.
