I can quite easily record PAL 720x576@25fps in mpeg4 or mpeg1 on my AMD XP2000 in realtime with ffmpeg alone running like this: ffmpeg -s 768x576 -tvstd pal -vcodec mpeg4 -b 2000 -acodec mp3 -ac 2 \ -ab 128 -f avi -t $DURATION -y $NAME.avi It uses about 60% CPU on average, adding -hq pushes it to a bit over 70%. I have never noticed any effect from the deinterlace flag so I tend not to bother with it. To my eye the result of these settings is a little blurry so generally I use something more like this: ffmpeg -s 768x576 -tvstd pal -vcodec mpeg1video -b 6400 -acodec mp2 \ -ac 2 -ab 160 -f mpeg -t $DURATION -y $NAME.avi IME high bandwidth mpeg1 is nicer than high bandwidth mpeg4 but it reverses at low bandwidth.

Don't worry, it's not an error, it's a warning that there was no frame sync detected by the time the timer expired and so you may get a slightly messy frame in the sequence.

I have several questions to ask here: 1. Is there any video capture card can be used on the laptop? Is there PCMCIA card using Brooktree chipset? Does the driver for PCI card still work? 2. About the ffserver, does it generate TCP traffic or UDP? I assume it is TCP since it needs the client use http://hostname to access the stream. If it is so, is there any stream server can generate UDP traffic and also has the approriate viewer to access the stream? I am pretty new here. Thanks for any suggestion.

The MB is Abit NF7-S based on nForce2 chipset. The sound card is on board: AC 97 CODEC on board I've compiled the KERNEL with "device pcm" in order to get the audio running. But when I reboot the system and then I check for the device, I see nothing: grep pcm /var/run/dmesg.boot - shows no pcm device dmesg | grep pcm - no device listed If I look to /boot/kernel/ , I see the snd_* module are loaded. But when I look into /dev/ there is nothing like: /dev/audio /dev/dsp /dev/mixer ... I wonder why? Could anyone advice me what can be the problem and how to get it running??? Thanks in advance.

Support for your h/w is more recent that 5.0 had built in. Your pcm device is implements ich audio controller interface. Looking at the CVS log for the ich audio driver at: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/sound/pci/ich.c you can see support for the nForce2 was added on January 13th. It went into the stable branch (4.x) a week later. | Could anyone advice me what can be the problem and how to get it | running??? Support for the nForce2 just requires an additional device id in the probing routine. You could look at the diff in CVS and apply that to your tree. Alternatively, you could move to a version of FreeBSD that supports it. 5.0 is not a very good place to be these days - there are few developers interested in tracking problems there. If you want a solid bsd then install 4.8R. If you are prepared to endure an early adopter version the go with 5.1R.

I'd greatly appreciate it. I can send you my config in private mail. I am running a G550 connected via DVI to a 46cm LCD. The second head is currently configured for a 640x480 output. The card is great apart from the fact, that TV-Out doesn't work under X11 (only Wincrap) and the Matrox losers don't do anything about it. The G400-DH runs fine w.r.t. TV-out (got it at home) but the G450 and G550 won't. That's why I'll never by a Matrox again... -Andre > > I'm running 5.1-R. > > Cheers, > > ...Robert > > -- > Robert Froese, RPF > Assistant Professor, Forest Biometrics > School of Forest Resources and Environmental Science > Michigan Technological University, Houghton MI. > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-multimedia > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-multimedia-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -- My other computer is your windows box.

The lack of documentation both on the XFree86 web site and the FreeBSD site was quite discouraging. While I find the handbook, for example, quite useful for general concepts, there are few detailed technical references both published and informal for FreeBSD. What I did conclude: First and foremost, the mgapdesk port does NOT work under 5.1-R. It crashes X every time. You don't need it though. To get dual-head to work on 5.1-R: 1) add the matrox linux hal driver - I think; I made a couple of simultaneous changes so I'm not sure it was necessary 2) make appropriate changes to the XF86Config file There's nothing else. In my searches I came across references to "xinerama" but after literally an hour trying to find ports/packages for FreeBSD I gave up and guessed that it was enabled somewhere in FreeBSD by default. Surprise! Good guess; it was. With xinerama you get a single KDE desktop stretched across the two screens. ...Robert On Friday 05 September 2003 03:58 am, Andre Albsmeier wrote: > On Wed, 27-Aug-2003 at 17:31:30 -0400, Robert Froese wrote: > > Hello all, > > > > I'm interested in converting my single head Matrox G400 system to a dual > > head G550 system.
