After finding faad to be the culprit, I downloaded and compiled a new version (2.6.1) and it works beautifully even when outputting to stdout.

I hope this helps those of you who are experiencing the same problem. -r -- rdefelice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rdefelice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15902 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48877 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
