This is very hackish, but it does work and I don't see a better solution.
You said your capture program is MEncoder, so:
mkfifo input output1
mencoder tv:// -endpos 30:00 -o input -ovc raw -oac pcm &
cat input | tee output1 | mencoder - -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=100000 -oac pcm -o goodquality.avi &
</pre>

<pre wrap=""><!---->
Do NOT use cat here. All it will do is increase cpu usage. Instead:
tee output1 < input | mencoder - -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=100000 -oac pcm -o goodquality.avi &
</pre>
