	It's in /usr/ports/graphics/ffmpeg now too BTW.

	Urk!

	Strange, this is achieved by simply opening /dev/tuner0 (it
still works for me on 4.7-STABLE about two weeks old). The only other
thing it depends on is proper mixer settings (record level and device
are classic gotchas). Is /dev/tuner0 still there and writeable to
whichever user runs ffmpeg ?

	Double urk! Mencoder and ffmpeg do this in exactly the same
way.
