OK glimmer of light ... >From avidemux forum <quote> File is not *damaged* every file created is created so. Something in transcode must be wrong to create *damaged* files. Index is missing, I would guess the recording operation is stopped incorrectly. (AVI recording cannot be just stopped, but for example Transport Stream recording can be) </quote> I record with this script: #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/transcode -q 2 \ -x v4l2 \ -g 640x480 \ -i /dev/video0 \ -p /dev/dsp \ -N 0x1 \ -Q 5 \ -w 1000 \ -y ffmpeg,tcaud \ -F mjpeg \ -o /home/jam/recording.avi And stop with ^C kill etc. How can I stop recording *correctly* Thanks James
