Re: Audio delay while transcoding possible?

You could try
--audio-desync=<integer>
To offset/ correct. Can be applied + or -
Or
-audio-sync
Inside the transcode string to auto correct.

See

http://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_command-line_help

May not work as expected in Linux depending on version?

Re: VLC ShortCut as desktop Capture

Yes,
But first you will have to do your screen capture using the command line and then create a batch file to execute the command line.
This may help point you in the right direction or at least give a hint of where to start.

Re: Optimal settings for a live webcam feed at 720p

1280x720 processing is going to consume a deal of CPU whatever.

Re: Capture card weirdness...

Sounds like the VLC default video input device is not the one you want to use.
You can select the input you want from the "Capture Device" window "device selection" dropdown box (video)
Or
Change the default video device input in Preferences: Input/access modules/Direct Show
