Hi David, There is an ioctl you can call against the demux filehandle to increase the size of the in-kernel buffer. However I have no idea whether the gnutv application currently plays with this value. I suspect you would probably have to add an ioctl() call to the gnutv source code. http://linuxtv.org/downloads/v4l-dvb-apis/dmx_fcalls.html#dms_set_buffer_size Devin -- Devin J.
