ivtvctl defaults, input 4 used (Svid) >> 1 sec delay with ffplay /dev/video0

ivtvctl bitrate=1000000 >> 1 sec delay (no change)

ivtvctl bitrate=100000 >> 1 sec delay (no change)

ivtvctl --set-format=width=320,height=240 (and bitrate still lower from default) >> no change

reset bitrate to 8000000 and res to 720*480

=====
VLC stream using GUI, no transcode, default settings port 8080 
vlc http://132.239.146.235:8080 gives 2.5 sec deelay if viewd on cocoa, 3.25

2.5 sec delay, more logical resolution (half of 720*480)

(For mp4v, invalid fps value makes video run at 30 fps and look blocky)
(For mp1v, invalid fps gets ffmpeg error and doesn't work)
fps=10 works for mp4v but not mp1v

===== 10 fps works and looks like 10 fps, but video slightly uglier (why??) 
vlc --no-audio --ttl=64 pvr:// :pvr-device="/dev/video0" --sout
'#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=128,fps=10,scale=.5}:standard{access=http,mux=ts,url=:8080}
2.5 sec delay on both

===== Using PS encapsulation (mux) makes delay very large
vlc --no-audio --ttl=64 pvr:// :pvr-device="/dev/video0" --sout
'#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=128,scale=.5}:standard{access=http,mux=ps,url=:8080}'
5 sec delay on cocoa

===== mux=asf also works
vlc --no-audio --ttl=64 pvr:// :pvr-device="/dev/video0" --sout
'#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=128,scale=.5}:standard{access=http,mux=asf,url=:8080}' 
2.5 sec delay

===== mp1v (mpeg1 works and only slightly uglier than mp4v)
vlc --no-audio --ttl=64 pvr:// :pvr-device="/dev/video0" --sout
'#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=128,scale=.5}:standard{access=http,mux=ts,url=:8080}'2.5
sec delay

===== mp1v with mux=asf works w 2.5 sec delay, but not in windows media player
vlc --no-audio --ttl=64 pvr:// :pvr-device="/dev/video0" --sout
'#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=128,scale=.5}:standard{access=http,mux=asf,url=:8080}'

===== WMV1 with mux=asf works with 2.5 sec, delay, WMP doesn't barf but keeps
buffering
vlc --no-audio --ttl=64 pvr:// :pvr-device="/dev/video0" --sout
'#transcode{vcodec=WMV1,vb=128,scale=.5}:standard{access=http,mux=asf,url=:8080}' 

===== WMV2 with mux=asf displays image in WMP, but doesn't really play
vlc --no-audio --ttl=64 pvr:// :pvr-device="/dev/video0" --sout
'#transcode{vcodec=WMV2,vb=128,scale=.5}:standard{access=http,mux=asf,url=:8080}' 

===== Changing ivtvctl res to 320*240 and vlc scale=1 doesn't improve delay,
2.5s still, and green bar on bottom of video
vlc --no-audio --ttl=64 pvr:// :pvr-device="/dev/video0" --sout
'#transcode{vcodec=WMV2,vb=128,scale=.5}:standard{access=http,mux=asf,url=:8080}'
