if any of you have a box with tv-in which is too slow to compress video in 
real time, and a fast box with no tv-in (like me), you can capture tv on the 
slow machine and compress it on the other:

# capture tv on one machine and compress on another:
# on machine bob:
socat TCP4-LISTEN:9999 - | mencoder - -ovc lavc -oac mp3lame -o cap.avi
# on machine alice:
socat PIPE:foo.fifo TCP4:bob:9999
mplayer -tv on:driver=v4l:other_options -dumpstream -dumpfile foo.fifo
