Ugh. I have a Axis webcam doing motion detection to watch the dogs at home. I have been creating mpg movies using the following command:
convert *.jpg -delay 10 date.mpg But before I use the convert command I copy the files to /tmp/date. When I try to copy the files I get a "Argument list too long" error and nothing is copied. If I try to run the convert commany directly from the directly where my Axis camera dumps them I get the same error: Argument list too long. I got crafty and did a 'for i in *jpg; cp $i /tmp/date ; done' and that worked - but the convert still failed. Any ideas here? I'm out of them. And google is no help, at least in the middle of the night. *yawn* -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc
