mencoder, as i think, cannot grab audio from bktr, just because there
is not support for this, i mean in bktr. Audio output from taperecorder
plugged in "line in" on sound card. There is both, video and audio, in
output file.
And... I tried to grab with transcode. Transcode
were pretty work with this options "width=400:height=300". But
transcode cannot record audio at all, at least in same time with tuner
grab (on FreeBSD only, i think). So mencoder willbe more usefull for me.
