How big are the files you are recording? I don't think I have hit 2G yet but I
am not sure what happens. I have been using mp1e for recording.
They are just a couple of MBs. I start mencoder with mpeg1video codec
and a few seconds later mplayer with the same file.

I am experiencing the effect that either mplayer or mencoder have
problems accessing the file. I get an end of file or cannot write to
file error...

Have you tried timeshifting with a Duron machine? I am thinking of
getting a PC with a Duron 1300 CPU.
I have not realy tried timeshifting, but I have a Duron :) It's a 700, on
an Asus A7V-board, and the tv-card is the FlyVideo3K. Capturing (directly
to msmpeg4 for example) works perfectly for VCD-resolutions (352x288).
Higher gets problematic and soon frames get dropped. Playing back such a
file with mplayer while capturing is no problem either. But since mplayer
doesn't play past the end of the file as it where when it startet playing
I won't call that timeshifting yet.
So, if you don't need hires then your prospective machine will do the job
just fine, that's for sure.
All the best,
rob
PS: I'm looking for hints as to how I can capture with the best quality.
Size does matter only as far as my memory/disk-bandwidth is concerned.
How do you guys capture video, if you want to do the compression later?
