I got it working. Apparently, glav (and most other lav and yuv tools),
can handle quicktime with YV12 encoding. Streamer can handle this too.

So you can capture with streamer (or whatever you're prefered tool is),
edit with glav, then do the following

lav2wav foo.edl > foo.wav

lav2yuv foo.edl | mencoder -audiofile foo.wav ... -

A big thanks to Ave on #mplayer for this.
