Bob, Create an alias like the following, and things should work fine: alias xawtv='cd /usr2/tmp/capture;xawtv ' You can add this to you .bashrc file. Xawtv writes captured files to your current working directory. So you must be starting xawtv while you are in your home directory. --- Bob Lockie <bjlockie@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Does anyone use xawtv? > I want to save captured images to a certain directory but > it defaults to $HOME. > > ---------------------------------------- > >From Mozilla/Linux > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Video4linux-list mailing list > Video4linux-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
