Ed, I experienced the same problem and wrote a shell script to convert mpeg table of contents files from a directory and put them in .bcast. Here is a link to that script: http://crazedmuleproductions.blogspot.com/2010/01/mpeg-toc-maker.html Just make sure you change the file extension type at the top of the script. scott _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list Cinelerra@skolelinux.no https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
