Re^2: qx and STDERR?

in thread qx and STDERR?

Yeah. The default shell seems to be a likely culprit.

I am on Debian testing, perl 5.26.1 ffmpeg 4.2.1.

It's not a big deal, I just would like to understand what is going on...

I just would like to understand what is going on... The versions you named don't seem very exotic, and without being able to reproduce it, I can't tell you more. Is `qx(ffmpg -f s16le -i out.raw 2>&1)` the actual command you're running (is "`ffmpg`" a typo)? Because if you're doing any other redirections there, the order makes a difference. Otherwise, I'd suggest debugging with `strace` and perhaps `lsof` to get some clues why your redirection isn't working.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
