Well done Jerry, I typed in exactly what you stated and it started to capture the TV program to the harddrive. Playback was a bit weird coloured in places, but that is an MPlayer problem here, as I tested video on the windblows laptop and it was fine to view/listen to. Anyone want to tell how to get around the "limitation" of only being able to recording the station xawtv was last tuned in to? Still looking to utilise this machine as a "2nd VCR" here as my tv is determined to broadcast 2 of my fav programs on diff channels at the same time when I'm at work ;-) -- magnet Registered Linux User: 281659 Registered machines: 163839,163840,163841,163842,163843,163844 6xAthlon 1.2GHz all running some flavour of Mandrake.
