I thought that FFv1 is deprecated and not able to use multithreading. I 
wanted to record a game play with utvideo without extremely exhausting 
CPU Core #0 and still being able to play my game smoothly. I did this 
already on Windows with Dxtory, but on Linux this is completely 
different. Please understand that I am no expert in ffmpeg and utvideo 
development, I have just recently started out with Arch Linux to learn 
more about GNU/Linux overall, and then slowly switch to it, leaving 
Windows one day.

I have tried several command line options (e. g. utvideo, libutvideo) 
but it only returns a "command not found" message. I might have to 
compile it static to be able to use the native encoder, but currently I 
am clueless. (I am still trying stuff around, there is no good 
documentation about how to compile and how to use utvideo codec, I did 
this all on my own until the compiling phase worked.)

How do I backtrace something?
