From: Me Me [mailto:emanuelef@tiscali.it] 
# var1 = $1
# var2 = $2
# var3 = $3
# var4 = $4
# var5 = $5

hint: array

eg,

> line
=> "Client=MPEG-4,390000,700000,24000"

> re
=> /(\w*?)=([0-9A-Za-z -.:]*?),(\d*?),(\d*?),(\d*)/

> line.match(re).captures
=> ["Client", "MPEG-4", "390000", "700000", "24000"]

also,

> x,y,z=[1,2,3]
=> [1, 2, 3]

> x
=> 1

> z
=> 3
