I guess you are saying "make the os.chdir() call in a separate thread so it won't affect the rest of freevo?". Making it a deamonplugin would be very hard from a functional basis, and anyway, the code that starts my mencoder process and handles the in/output is already located in a separate thread, and that doesn't stop the os.chdir call from affecting all other freevo processes. If this isn't what you intended to say, please hit me again untill i get it :) Anyway, i just saw freevo's own Popen class gained a cwd attribute :) Gonna try that Thx for the response den_RDC ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
