Anyway, my version of nuvexport does support -i, but seems 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. -- EC On Thu, 2005-11-10 at 13:25 -0800, EC wrote: > Thank You.

Thank You. That looks like it will do the trick!

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.
