Ah! Ok; that clears it up. Is there some underlying problem that makes
simultaneous input/output problematic, or is it something that's likely to
be fixed in the near future?
(I am assuming it's a Linux problem; not a general J2SE 1.3 problem.)

*bangs head against wall (almost)* - no. I've always been using the
non-Linux specific version for *playing* sounds/video; and I didn't properly
explore the Linux package, and hence didn't see it...
Thanks!
It seems to work now; although I've yeat to be able to capture audio to a
file. But that's almost certainly a coding error on my part (first-time
JMF:er).
