Guys Hi I have used transcode for my command line recording of /dev/dsp and /dev/video0, a v4l2 device, for ages and very successfully. I tried to run with a modern kernel and was bombarded with 'inappropriate ioctl' messages. A few days spent with ffmpeg shows bad a/v sync (of order 0.2 s) and after a while (an hour of recording) .... pause ................. pause ........ for of order 100mS.
sysstat and iostat show nothing that I can see and say aaaah Has anybody used transcode recently? This is what I'm trying ... transcode -x v4l2 -i /dev/video0 -p /dev/dsp -Q 5 -w 1000 -y ffmpeg,tcaud -F mpeg4 -J smartyuv,pv=fullscreen -o file.avi ffmpeg -f pulse -i default -f v4l2 -i /dev/video0 -vtag divx -s svga -q:v 5 file.avi -s svga -f rawvideo - | ffplay -i - -s svga Thanks James
