After-the-fact synchronization really sucks... well.. I grabed the Babylon 5 Intro.. it doesn't have sound as fxtv doesn't yet support simultaious capture yet... I did start work on tring to get fxtv to do synchronous audio/video capture, but I have other work to do now... oh.. as a side note, I did get fxtv to save ppm's instead of just tiff's, which make mpeg_encode run quite a bit faster.. :) ttyl... -- John-Mark Gurney Modem/FAX: +1 541 683 6954 Cu Networking Live in Peace, destroy Micro$oft, support free software, run FreeBSD
