theora - May 2005 - Simple Video and Audio Recording ???

Hello,

(This is yet another newbie question.)

My goal is to record Video and Audio, from a webcam and microphone, and 
record them in ogg format. (Using Theora and Vorbis.)

I'm aware that I can use video4linux or video4linux2 to get the video. And 
use various API's for audio. And can use APIs like GStreamer to do the 
encoding, etc. But, if possible, I like something a little more "higher 
level". Something that takes care of any audio/video synchronization
issues.
(But perhaps, in ignorance, I'm over simplifying things.)

Is there anything like this currently out there? I.e., is there a simple 
tool, API, or Library, that I can tell it to "record", and it just
does it?


TIA


See ya

You might look at flumotion.net. I believe it handles webcam input.
