If you're trying to capture 640x480 raw frames to your disk there's a
good
chance you're overrunning your IO subsystem.  Usually I have to compress 
the data a bit before I try to write it to disk to get the full stream. 

If you were in windowsland I'd suggest Huff_YUV, but you're going to
have
to go for Motion JPEG at a high quality setting or something.
