Nothing as far as I can see(?). It seems both camera devices allocate or

Not that I use, but have not haven't found a way to verify it.
However, I have recalled and found out more with progress.
The most important it seems required to reboot the machine with the
camcorder ON (video signal) on beforehand, before ffmpeg get the video
input.
Reboot also seems required to clean up v4L2 buffer after using
unsupported fps ffplay or ffmpeg cause the
"Dequeued v4l2 buffer contains corrupted data (0 bytes)."
Hopefully there are a v4L command to easier cleanup the latter?
Beside the already listed Video4Linux devices, there are also
cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [PCH_1 ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
HDA Intel PCH at 0x4200910000 irq 168
1 [PCH ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
HDA Intel PCH at 0x41300000 irq 169
2 [UHD ]: USB-Audio - USB3.0 UHD
MACROSILICON USB3.0 UHD at
usb-0000:00:14.0-3, super speed
3 [Camera ]: USB-Audio - USB 2.0 Camera
Sonix Technology Co., Ltd. USB 2.0 Camera at
usb-0000:00:14.0-11.2, high speed
However, so far ffmpeg has yet to find any audio streams via v4l2 as
seen below.
S-vido as well as audio L/R cables are connected between the camcorder
out and A/D converter IN.
Maybe additional configuration is required (I didn't think the separate
sound card (Behringer U-Phono should be necessary)
