What I have been asked to do, is to capture video off a camera, add a visible timestamp and dump it to DVD/VCD, which I've chosen to do under FreeBSD. Currently I have a simple camera, hooked up through a Hauppauge PVR-350 capture card which is working like a dream thanks to John Wehle, my problem now is how to get a timestamp to display on the final DVD. I've managed to munge together a script using spumux/dvdauthor and a couple of perl scripts to generate the timestamp as subtitles, however this is proving to be rather slow and I can't force the subtitles to be displayed on a standalone DVD player. Does anyone know of a script/program to handle this kind of thing which will work under FreeBSD? Any help would be appreciated.
