> /usr/local/bin/buffer < /dev/cxm0 > $1 & Using dd usually suffices for simple capturing, though in either case you'll probably want to use a larger buffer size (I believe the buffer program defaults to 10k). I use: dd if=/dev/cxm0 of=test.mpg bs=1m when making test captures. I don't suggest using buffer sizes smaller than 64k. -- John ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Feith Systems | Voice: 1-215-646-8000 | Email: john@feith.com | | John Wehle | Fax: 1-215-540-5495 | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------
