Yup, it records audio. It even lets you select from a number of different formats for the audio. The one "hassle" is that it records raw bits of audio and video - possibly interleaving video across multiple drives for extra performance - and then runs a script to convert those to your desired format. That takes a bit of time. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
