The minimal command to transcode from a capture card to a portable MPEG file is thus:
vlc v4l:// :v4l-norm=1: '--sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=2030,audio-sync,acodec=mpga,ab=192,channels=2}:std{access=file,mux=mpeg1,url="out_file.mpg"}'
These MPEG files have been verified to work with:
- Windows Media Player 10
- Apple QuickTime Player 7
- XINE 1.0
- ffplay
- xanim 2.80 (no audio)
