If your stream has "multiple" (for instance multiple sub channels, or you want to programmatically select a particular audio stream):
- when the channel plays, select playlist
- rightclick on the item, which is playing and select information
- go to stream
- here you can find all broadcast-channels with their service-ID
- write them down
- go to File/Open CaptureCard
- in the option-line at the bottom append a space (if not there) a : and the keyword "program=", followed by one of the service-IDs

The minimal command to transcode from a capture card to
a portable MPEG file (this example includes trancoding which may be lessly, be careful) 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)
