To record to x264 with VLC, use something like this:

vlc v4l:/dev/video0:norm=ntsc:frequency=77250:size=640x480:channel=5:\
adev=/dev/dsp1:samplerate=32000:audio=0:stop-time=60 \
--sout "#transcode{vcodec=h264,fps=29.97,acodec=mp3}\
:std{access=file,mux=ts,dst=output.mpg}" aspect-ratio "4:3" -I dummy

Note that vlc uses alsactl to find sound devices, so oss devices may not work.
