I use a DC10+.  Try something like

lavrec -f a -i P -d 1 -q 80 -s -l 60 -R l -U 
filename-%02d.avi  --max-file-size num         Maximum size per file (in MB)

The --max-file-size part is only necessary if you want to split the recording 
into smaller files.  I use it when I'm short of space and need to move some 
of the recording to temporary storage.
