Hi Linux/Win7 Formats would be mainly mpeg2/dv/h264 I've done some testing and it seems that we can play OK and record OK separately. But If I try to play back a file that is currently recording I can only seek to a certain point but no further. We get stuck in av_read_frame. i.e. we open a stream to record and start recording to it. We then open another stream to play the same file back. In addition - with DV for example, I get Error: failed to map EditUnit -1 in IndexSID 1 to an offset Error: Truncating packet of size 576000 to 575469 I guess what I am asking is, is this even possible? Cheers Steve
