Is there someone successfully using lavrec on and Athalon > with a new kernel? (Newer than 2.4.10?) I got it to record last night without hiccup for about 70 minutes. I then was able to try out glav, and it seems to do what I want, which is excellent. I always had trepedation about using a sysetm that used multiple files becoz I worried about the loss when the old file is closed, and the new file is opened. I may well have been experiencing the BP6 bug rather than anything caused by lavrec (though it wasn't pushing the system hard...~ 30% CPU with 90% MJPEG quality) > > 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.

I'm wanting to backup our old camcorder stuff from a VCR, but since my CPU's are relatively slow, I can't do realtime MPEG/DivX conversion. Which is why I was looking at OpenDML AVI's to then be able to take my time in the conversion one I have good a good quality input on the HD. But I'll take a loko at starting with a QT movie and chopping out some stuff and then doing a VCD/DivX export.
