What version of the mjpegtools do you have. This sounds like a bug that was corrected in a later version, so simply upgrading to the latest mplex might just make it go away. I'm using the latest: [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# mplex --help mjpegtools mplex-2 version 1.6.2 (2.2.3) Alternately, how did you encode the movie, if you didn't use -f 8 to mpeg2enc when you encoded it, then you should not use -f 8 to mplex when you multiplex it. I.e., the -f # option should be identical between mplex and mpeg2enc. In any case, if you encoded with a format that causes the mpeg encoder to include split markers, you are stuck, as there's no option to tell mplex to ignore embedded split markers in the raw mpeg data. That's the problem. The script I'm using, on the mpeg2enc step they have "--sequence-length 795". I didn't know what it was for. That may solve the problem. Thanks, Mike You then need to to use a filename with a %d in it somewhere so mplex can create the multiple files that the mpeg encoder it telling it to create. PS to Andrew - Maybe this is an idea for an additional mplex flag. "--ignore-split-markers" that causes it to ignore the embedded split markers and just make one large mpeg file anyway. Is this possible? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Get better spam protection with Yahoo!
