I was skimming through that and noticed this line in Step 5:

nc -l -p 1200 > nameofshow.ty | splitstream - nameofshow.m2a
nameofshow.m2v badblocks.ty

I'm not sure which part of that should be changed, but I can't imagine
it working as is. The output of nc can either be redirected to
nameofshow.ty (using the > operator) or piped to splitstream, but not
both. On both my Win98 box and Linux box, it writes to the file, but
doesn't pass any data to the pipe.

The simple test I used was this:
echo asdf > deleteme.txt | more
if more got the string, you'd see it printed on the screen (as you do
with echo asdf | more). It does run the next command, just without
there being any data in the pipe. You can see it in this example:
echo asdf > deleteme.txt | edit
It writes to the file and then runs edit.

My guess is that it should read:

nc -l -p 1200 | splitstream - nameofshow.m2a nameofshow.m2v
badblocks.ty

which runs the data through splitstream, you just don't have the raw
tystream left afterward.
