not quite, the problem was my own illiteracy. i'd been specifying a variable of OUPUTTYPE, not OUTPUTTYPE. abcde was then defaulting to ogg, but i had ENCODERSYNTAX set to 'lame', which doesn't so much encode to ogg. it was then hanging, being sent contradictory messages. thanks for the responding. </nori> -- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------http://www.sccs.swarthmore.edu/~nori/jnl/daily.html -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
