Hello,

   Thanks for your help, BTW, I appreciate it.  I run 0.18.1 currently

only to use the name as a reference to the MythTV database.  It doesn't
seem to matter if the file exists or not.  It just matters that the name
matches a filename in MythTV's active directory of shows.  I also have
tried updating my nuvexport.  I tried nuvexport version:  0.2
0.20051020.svn.  That gives me some DB table fields missing warnings
(SVN, while I'm using 0.18.1), but it still behaves the same.
  
I was referring to mythtranscode using the -i switch, which may only be 
in newer SVN builds. I don't recall exactly when it was added. Have you 
gone the other route by importing the external files into the database? 
Unless you want to switch to SVN, or use a different tool to do the 
conversions, that would be the only other option that I can see.

Hmmm, no joy.  It looks like nuvexport uses mythtranscode, which looks
like it takes the show to transcode from the MythTV database.  Since the
shows I wish to transcode aren't in the MythTV database, I cannot get
mythtranscode to access them.  The ffmpeg part of the nuvexport process
should work, though, once I can get the video to it in a form it can
take.

If you run nuvexport in debug mode it shows you all of the command-lines 
it is running, so you could just do that for something in your database, 
get the proper command-lines, and then substitute the non-db filenames 
where appropriate. I haven't tried it, but it should work with a little 
tweaking. Then you could probably write a small wrapper script to take a 
filename as input to semi-automate it.

[mythtv-users] export of mythtv NUV files not in DB

2005-11-10 Thread EC
Hi,

   I'm trying to transcode several MythTV MPeg4 NUV files to DVD
standard compliant MPeg2.  The files are not in my MythTV database,
which makes nuvexport not so good for this (though I really like it -
it's great for files that are in the DB).

Does anyone have a transcode or mencoder or etc. commandlines/examples
that they like?  My mplayer/mencoder is configured to understand MythTV
streams.

   I've been playing around with this for some time, and am having quite
a bit of trouble.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
