One thing to know about me is that I don't know much about these settings I created this whole script by basically going through man pages and faqs and choosing settings based on phrases like for highest quality use lower or higher numbers so if you can please explain what those mean since I have been unable to find a website to adequatly explain them in plain english to me. Plus I was able to get the fifo working which makes me happy. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
