[MEncoder-users] Problem with time-shifting an audio recording

Hi,

I used the following command to start recording from a streaming radio:

mplayer rtsp://213.254.239.61/farm/*/encoder/swr/swr2/live.rm -ao pcm 
-ao pcm:file=/tmp/test.wav -vc dummy -vo null -quiet

It worked fine. After some initial buffering it started to record the 
audio into /tmp/test.wav

However, when I tried to use the same command with 'at' in order to 
start recording on a specified time, I encountered a problem. It started 
mplayer OK, but then finished immediately. The following trace was sent 
to my mail box:

No recording happened. How could I fix this?

Thanks,
