Your file name handling is certainly the correct way ! The fact that realtime encoding does not work for you, even in mpeg1 is interesting. For Erich Zigler mpeg1 works but never mpeg4. For me mpeg1 works, and occasionaly mpeg4 works too. Maybe it is performance related ? weird. I posted a question on the ffmpeg list, maybe someone can analyze the faulty mpeg4 avi that are produced. what kind of machine do you have ?
