ffmpeg question

[Joe Auty]

Hello,

Doing a:

cat /dev/cxm0 > myvideo.mpg

produces great mpeg2 video... However:

ffmpeg -i /dev/cxm0 -t 10 test_ffmpeg.mpg

produces 10 seconds of mpeg1 video that doesn't look as good.


I've tried adding -f <format> and -vcodec options with -s 640x480,  
but I just can't seem to find something that will reproduce my raw  
feed without errors, loss of picture, the size being off, or  
reverting back to mpeg1.

To save me a little further time in just random trial and error, can  
anybody hook me up with the combination I need?


Much thanks in advance! Hopefully this will be the last question I  
have on this topic, thanks for your patience!
