Wow thanks much. I'll look at it now and report back. I will note that
although I'm using an external drive for livestmp, the drive uses no
FAT32 or other similar partitions, as it is only used on Linux systems,
so I formatted all partitions as ext4. Unfortunately, I'm also getting
the same error when putting livestmp under my home directory, which is
on a btrfs subvolume, so if the latest patch doesn't fix it, I'm totally
at a loss. Thankfully, I do have the mencoder command, so I should be
able to manually encode my clips using that command if I continue to see
failures. Just an additional thought: since libav appears to be causing
the packet size errors, could my libav version also be responsible for
the audio read errors? could building a different version of libav
possibly solve both problems?

and another really interesting but somewhat unrelated thought: is there
a technical reason why ffmpeg_encoder isn't able to encode using ffv1
video and pcm audio in a Matroska file? I initially used ffmpeg from the
command line to manually encode a single vob file from a dvd to this
exact format, and it kept sync far better than anything else I tried,
even far better than just opening the vob file directly in LiVES and
editing the clip. My command as I remember it was something like

ffmpeg -i some-video-file.ext -c:v ffv1 -c:a pcm_s16le transcoded-file.mkv

Is there a way something like this could be adapted for future versions?
Thanks again for all the help; I'll let you know what I find shortly.
