Yes, I see that.... I just finished a 2 hr tape and my warning poped up after it ran for the full allotted time and exited normally...

I changed the -2- to -0- just guessing and i thought it was working.... ( I can't for the life of me find a listing of 'trap options' explaining what each number here would do?) I switched it because the -2- option isn't ending the script? It prints my inserted code, but doesn't bring back the prompt, it just continues the script?

Ok, I spoke too soon. the -2- option does stop DVgrab (it doesn't exit the script when i press Ctrl-c before the point in the script when DVgrab starts.... Which is fine except, I also have a function that runs a countdown in my script, and this countdown continues after Ctrl-c... The countdown function looks like this:

function countdown
{
        local OLD_IFS="${IFS}"
        IFS=":"
        local ARR=( $1 )
        local SECONDS=$((  (ARR[0] * 60 * 60) + (ARR[1] * 60) + ARR[2]  ))
        local START=$(date +%s)
        local END=$((START + SECONDS))
        local CUR=$START

        while [[ $CUR -lt $END ]]
        do
                CUR=$(date +%s)
                LEFT=$((END-CUR))

                printf "\r%02d:%02d:%02d" \
                        $((LEFT/3600)) $(( (LEFT/60)%60)) $((LEFT%60))

                sleep 1
        done
        IFS="${OLD_IFS}"
        echo "        "
}
