Before you go too much further, I've had the same symptom due to the player not being able to keep up with the framerate. Is it any better if you disable video output and/or use mplayer from the commandline? How did you strip out the audio for Audacity? As for fixing the audio, you could run the whole talk through a compressor or AGC in Audacity, or spend a couple hours manually scrubbing the glitches. Audio editing often involves a lot of drudgery and coffee. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
