But I haven't yet seen any a/d usb 2.0 adapter that documents something "better quality" record format than mpegs (possibly DV25) compression.
What I really want is some kind of 4:2:2 sampling rate documented, like i.e DV50 or other. Neither USB 3.0 adapters is found, which possibly is neccessary for 4:2:2 FLAC lossless compression?
AVerMedia CE310B (Chipset: Conexant CX23888)
Requires kernel version 4.19.106, 5.4.22, 5.5.6, or later.

if you follow link to manufacturer's site it will say device support uncompressed (4:2:2) capture..
a bit more expensive (~100$) and requires pci-e slot... but cheap usb devices tend to be cheap on all fronts?
also, this answer suggest old Hauppauge USB-Live 2 might work (there were problems on older kernels, you probably need to connect this device to dedicated usb bus (check with lsusb), and this requirement about initing audio capture before/at same time as video capture sounds a bit strange? )
Comments and other options or suggestions are welcome to clarify the latter :;

Yep, something like that, I think the make I used was Easycap.
