This is strange. This works, but I'm unable to grep the output and I'm not sure why. If I pipe to grep, I get nothing. I tried redirecting stderr to stdout and doesn't seem to work. [jeremy@serv src]$ ./silan -t 2.0 -s -40d "http://live.skidrowstudios.com:8000/live" Info: signal threshold: 0.010000 ^= -40.000dBFS 0.069569 Sound On 15.814150 Sound Off Doing the same test: [jeremy@serv src]$ ./silan -t 2.0 -s -40d "http://live.skidrowstudios.com:8000/live" | grep "Sound Off" Info: signal threshold: 0.010000 ^= -40.000dBFS I get nothing.
