IGain controls the recording volume of the current recording source. If 
you turn it to zero, you will record silence. MEncoder does _nothing_ 
with the mixer, it just opens the audio device and reads data. Turn 
IGain to 100%, select Line In as the recording source and run mencoder 
(or cat /dev/dsp to see if it produces something)
