Check your disk I/O read bandwidth. Lav2wav is heavily read I/O bandwidth bound. It sounds like your disk read bandwidth is way low for some reason, and therefore lav2wav is not creating PCM data very quickly, which means there is very little data for sox to work with. Both result in very low CPU utilization. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by The 2004 JavaOne(SM) Conference Learn from the experts at JavaOne(SM), Sun's Worldwide Java Developer Conference, June 28 - July 1 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, CA REGISTER AND SAVE! http://java.sun.com/javaone/sf Priority Code NWMGYKND _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
