Michael,
I tried lavrec twice last night, but it hung my box hard after about
10 minutes of recording. So I will be investigating THAT when I get
home from work tonight....
From the relative silence about that problem, I thought it was less prevalent
or already fixed. Is there someone successfully using lavrec on and Athalon
with a new kernel? (Newer than 2.4.10?)
I spent some time last night looking at the transcode export_dvraw
code, becoz some people had said that kino was capable of handling
large files (12GB by some accounts) but it was causing transcode
to SEGV with -x v4l -y dvraw
Large quicktime file support seems to be more consistent that large AVIs. The
lavtools have handled 60GB quicktime movies on my system. (Limited by hard
drive space.)
Are you working with a v4l or an IEEE1394 input?
