a quick hack using FUDI: #!/bin/sh pd -verbose -stderr 2>&1 | while read line do echo "${line};" | pdsend 6666 localhost udp done but of course it would be better to get the information you want directly instead of parsing the console output. e.g. the 2nd outlet of [pix_film] gives you some information of how well it succeeded to open a video file. mfg.asdr IOhannes _______________________________________________ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
