well see, mplayer treats the tv device as a demuxer. i think the error
you got was because the tv device was filling the buffer with video
frames faster than mencoder could take them out and save them. i
suppose it could have something to do with audio...last i checked, the
tv capture device in mplayer didn't even support audio capture. i'll
take a look at the latest cvs and see...
