Hi, Ongoing saga, but almost sorted...
1.4rc1 Installed and working
Mplayer installed and working
mencoder installed and working standalone via commandline
Freevo setup and working for TV and playing DVDs, also web interface
works fine. Can set up recordings via web and all appears to work,
channel choice, timing (out by an hour but can sort that later!), save
and it appears to run and remove itself from pending list but then no
recording appears (so I assume the recordserver is functioning normally)
In the freevo interface F6 appears to initiate a recording (but no
choice re timing given at all) but again no output files found.
If I take the commands from VCR_Settings and run them from the
commandline then mencoder objects to no audio encoder (-oac) selected
even though there is and even if I alter this line...
e.g. I try and run this line
mencoder -tv on:driver=v4l:input=1 :norm=pal channel=66
chanlist=europe-west device=/dev/video0 adevice=/dev/dsp4 -ovc lavc
-lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4 -oac mp3lame -lameopts br=128:cbr:mode=3 -o
x.avi
