OMG!?!?! Im a such an idiot I accidentally had a set of additional custom recording profiles. And you can guess, the custom recording profiles were all at their default settings of 480x480 and a max bitrate of 6000kbps. D'OH! Now that I changed those settings, everything thankfully works as it should again. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Lots of folks with hardware encoders use auto transcode as well to save space. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

There you go; mystery solved. That is why MythTV is transcoding your programs after they've been recorded, and why you're ending up with 480x480 recordings. > But whats the point in enabling that?

In your case, you've decided there is no need to enable auto-transcode. Turn off the checkbox if this feature doesn't meet your needs. As for why this feature exists at all, it is because not everyone has a hardware encoder, so things need to be transcoded after the fact in less-than-real-time. --Rob signature.asc Description: Digital signature ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Probably not, I'll have to check. But why should that matter? Im not asking MythTV to transcode my recordings once theyve been recorded. After all, that would just result in more loss of quality. I'm trying to get to the point were my recording profiles are as such that I can more or less directly burn my recordings to DVD without any need of re-encoding or transcoding. Ok, I just checked it, and the first page says "Automatically transcode after recording". But whats the point in enabling that? I do NOT want to have to re-encode my recordings. And since they are being recorded at 480x480 resolution anyway, resizing them through transcoding is utterly pointless. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
