Ok, I have one for the video guys. I have been getting ALOT of requests for DVD and AVI's for Linux, that is people want to use there Linux boxes to create DVD's, AVI's, etc. Just to keep it simple for now, I would like to limit my question to this,<BR>
I have installed an AverTV TV Tuner Card, works great! I have all the config's the way I think they should be but I probably have something wrong due to the lack of info in the man page (xawtvrc). Anywho, my problem is this, I have never been able to create an avi file with the xawtv program until now, actually works great with very nice capture, however, I cannot for the life of me get the sound to get recorded. The sound works great using the TV part of it. I will include a copy of my ~/.xawtv file below.<BR>
Also, one thing of note, could be important or at least a clue, I have to start xawtv with "xawtv -c /dev/video0" instead of just with "xawtv". I read the man page and it says that /dev/video0 is the default anyway, so I really don't see why I need to specify the whole thing with the -c option.<BR>
Here is an excerpt from the man page on xawtv (notice how it says that Xvideo support would be lost, is that why my sound isn't being recorded?)<BR>
‐c, ‐device device<BR>
set video4linux device (default is /dev/video0). This option<BR>
also disables Xvideo support.<BR>
Resource: xawtv.device (string).<BR>
Here is the ~/.xawtv file I am using<BR>
<BR>
[global]<BR>
freqtab = us-cable<BR>
keypad-ntsc = on<BR>
fullscreen = 1024 x 768<BR>
input = Television<BR>
mixer = line<BR>
mov-driver = avi<BR>
mov-video = rgb24<BR>
mov-audio = stereo<BR>
<BR>
[defaults]<BR>
norm = ntsc<BR>
audio = stereo<BR>
capture = grabdisplay<BR>
<BR>
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!!!<BR>
