Piping from device?

Hi

Long time since I did any shell scripting so please be gentle with me! Smilie

Just wanted to know whether it is possible to take the streaming output from a dvb card /dev/dvb/adapter0/ and using named pipes and tee to pass the outputs to mplayer and mencoder so as to watch and record a telly program simultaneously.

If this is possible can anyone point me to a good example?

Many thanks

Each page number opens a new window with the previously given geometry, device, and display. ppp.ss stands for a page number and an optional subpage number (example: 123.4). The -child option requires a parent window. So it must be preceded by a parent or another child window. SEE ALSO alevt-cap(1),alevt-date(1). AUTHOR
