Bruno thanks,

I've played with it a bit and found that multiple scratch files
seems broken. I changed the following in the fxtv_cnvt.sh script
and it worked for me.

    videoSource="$videoSource -i $VIDFIFO -y \
                -vcodec $IMAGE_TARGET_FMT \
                $TARGET_FN_BASE.$FFM_OUT_EXT "
#               ${AV_RAW_FILES%%.AVraw}.$FFM_OUT_EXT "

This, as a side effect names the final output the same as the 
name entered in the fxtv window plus the extension which I 
like better than scratch.AVraw.ext anyway.

I haven't been able to get any realtime encoding to work yet.
mplayer crabs like this.

==> Found video stream: 0
==> Found audio stream: 1
AVI: missing video stream!? contact the author, it may be a bug :(


I got similar results with mpeg1, but I'll keep poking around.

Pete
