   OSS seems to work fine, so no biggie.

   Although... I spoke too soon. Still more troubles, although probably 
not nvrec more likely ffmpeg.

   Whenever I try to output to mspeg4v2, the image is distorted from 
about the middle down. All other codecs work fine, but that one breaks. 
(and spits out many "dct cliped" messages).

   I found a page using google yesterday where another user had the same 
problem on ffmpeg > 0.4.8. Strangely, I can't google that page today.

   Anyways, so I attempted to go back to ffmpeg 0.4.8, but then I have 
to keep chasing my tail backwards to find nvrecs that will compile with 
older ffmpegs.

   I ended up back at ffmpeg-0.4.6 and nvrec-20030316 in order to get it 
working. :<

   At least it works again and now with v4l2 and kernel 2.6.11.12, but I 
was hoping to be a lot more current.
