[MPlayer-users] [BUG] -srate is (still) broken

[Mick]

Could this be why my bttv recordings (using line in) sound so shity?

I'm using:
/bin/nice -n-20 /usr/bin/mencoder tv:// -tv
driver=v4l:width=528:height=576:outfmt=yuy2:input=0:device=/dev/v4l/video0:norm=PAL:chanlist=australia:channel=10:audiorate=44100:forcechan=2:alsa -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=2200 -oac mp3lame -lameopts fast:preset=standard -vf crop=512:560,pp=tn/lb/vb:2,scale=512:384,dsize=1.3333 -sws 0 -endpos 10 -ffourcc divx -o test.avi

And the audio sounds like an 8khz sample.  I thought maybe it has
something to do with my cards output or sblive values poor input..
