[MPlayer-users] TVInput and audio

[Julian J. M.]

hi
	I'm trying to record a VHS movie using an Avermedia TVCapture 98
(bt878). I'm using this commandline to see if it works:

	mplayer -tv
on:driver=v4l:device=/dev/video0:width=384:height=288:outfmt=yuy2

But, unless I add :noaudio to the parameters, I just get 1 fps. I guess
it's because it's trying to record 44.1Khz, 8bit, mono. Is there any way
to tell mplayer open the audio device in 44.1Khz, 16bit, (stereo?).
Using -ao null doesn't fix the problem.

BTW, i've RTFM, and haven't found anything related to tv input and
audio.

Here is the output:
