Hello Maurice.

Might work, when I get Mplayer working, I'll give it a "bash" ... <grin>

What you want to "flog" this time ... <grin>

Pity this lot takes so long to do, before one can view/sample the results ... 
, must be a way to compress the sound track as well, and not loose sync ...

Talking of 1G media, saw my first mini-dvd to-day, 1.4G storage ... , just 
over $2.00 US ...
