HI,

I am not sure if I have overlooked something or it is just ignorance,
but mythtv doesn't seem to be either flagging commercials or doing
automatic transcoding.

On the mythfrontend settings I have the appropriate checkboxes checked
to allow for automatic transcoding and commercial detection. On
mythweb when I set it to record a program the checkboxes for
"Auto-flag commercials" is checked. However, the shows are not
transcoded (they are left in .nuv format), and the commercials are
still present. But then it HAS to be transcoded in order for
commercials to be cut, right? But Mythweb also has "has cutlist: no"
... and I thought this SHOULD be "yes" since it is set to auto-flag
commercials. Have I misunderstood this?

Can anyone show me where I might have gone wrong here?
I believe Adam accurately answered your question about the NUV. As for the commerical flagging, you notice that it is "flagging", not "cutting" that is done. If you are looking for how to automatically convert your commercial flags into a cutlist used by transcoding, search the list archives for a thread titled "Automatically load commercial skip list into cutlist" and you'll see that Chris Pinkham gave an excellent example of how to do this just 5 days ago.
