the "waiting for mythtranscode to set up fifos" (which was the last thing you said nuvexport printed before failing) comes from nuvexport, and means that mythtranscode has not yet created the fifo's in the tmp dir. It won't start ffmpeg until those are created.

Or have you moved on to a completely different error?


no, not a different error. But, look at this:

To me, this looks like there's something wrong with ffmpeg. Hey wait a minute, Why does -4mv do in ffmpeg? I don't see it in ffmpeg.pm. This is the 1st pass --debug:

$ /bin/nice -n19 ffmpeg -y -f s16le -ar 48000 -ac 2 -i /tmp/fifodir_4835/audout -f rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p -s 480x480 -aspect 1.33333333333333 -r 29.970 -i /tmp/fifodir_4835/vidout -aspect 1.33333333333333 -r 29.970 -deinterlace -croptop 10 -cropbottom 10 -cropleft 10 -cropright 10 -padleft 2 -padright 2 -s 620x464 -vcodec xvid -b 960 -minrate 32 -maxrate 1920 -bt 32 -bufsize 65535 -lumi_mask 0.05 -dark_mask 0.02 -scplx_mask 0.5 -4mv -part -pass 1 -passlogfile '/tmp/xvid.4835.log' -f avi /dev/null

So, to answer my own question, -4mv is a switch in the XviD.pm file. (and divx.pm)

What is the -4mv switch for?
There is no -4mv switch in my ffmpeg. (there is a -mv4, though)
