This makes me think, are you using BTTV-0.8? Then, you need to use the latest CVS of lavrec, lavrec in mjpegtools-1.6.0 is known not to work with BTTV-0.8 (it's using 3 device-access-threads, and the BTTV-0.8 driver uses semaphores in such a way that that won't work). lavrec in CVS uses 2 device-access-threads, and that works well... Hope this helps, Ronald
