Audio ring buffer overflow is related to rate, not volume. That message generally means that you have capture data coming in from the capture card at a speed higher than what your hard drive can write to disk. However it's kind of hard to believe you would have a disk I/O speed problem on a reasonably modern system at decimation 2 and quality 80 if you have a hardware mjpeg capture card, unless you have a bunch of background disk I/O going on that you are not telling us about. You might try dropping the (-U) to see if it helps, but I suspect there's something else afoot somewhere causing the trouble. ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
