I'm glad you said that, because I have just lost my original response to your post. :) I noticed, because I noticed your script was falling through the 'wait', which meant that avconv had in fact terminated itself. I was very surprised. I don't know enough about the intricacies of the exec to know if it is possible that perl has 'pre-seeded' the signal handling in some way. So I shall remain surprised. Incidentally, you had a 'kill -9', which I think should be a 'kill 9'. i.e. Kill a process, not a process group. I'm not surprised that my original shell script was baffling. I put it together for myself quite a while ago just to do a job, which it did. As I had made notes, I thought that someone else might be able to cull something from it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mrw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38299 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103158 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
