Damn... I have an older version up there using esdrec.  Ya... You
want a line that looks more like:

open(STREAM, "catdsp -d $device -r $samplerate $catdspmono | lame -s $ksamplerate -p -S $lamemono -b $kbitrate -f -x -r - |"); 

or if you are using the Fraunhofer codec...

open(STREAM, "catdsp -d $device -r $samplerate $catdspmono | /usr/local/mp3enc31/mp3enc31 -sti -sto -l3wav -v -qual 0 $mp3encmono -br $bitrate -sr $samplerate |"); 

Change the arguments as needed... :-)

I will post a more current mixice up there today.   

I had problems with ESDREC stuffing extra data into the stream so
I wrote my own.
