It's the safest way ( you don't have to figure how to make sound work in tuner - last time when I had working sound with the same card was with bttv 0.6.4 ). LS> 2. My system is AMD K6-II 400 MHz.

Although your machine is rather slow, you should be able to encode at least 320x240x25 using Indeo Video 5 compressor. IIRC avifile also includes a Motion JPEG codec, but it is time limited and it has already expired. If you set date to somewhere in January, it should work. -- Best regards, Eugene mailto:divx@xxxxxxx or sparky@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [Team GADGET] [Team Two Divided By Zero] NetZero Platinum No Banner Ads and Unlimited Access Sign Up Today - Only $9.95 per month! http://www.netzero.net
