[mythtv-users] automatic transcode messes up time index

2005-04-12 Thread Norman Lyon
Has anyone seen a problem where the auto-transcode (or possibly the manual transcode) messes up the time index for the recorded programs? I can playback just fine, but if I try to move forward 30 seconds, I may see a 40+ minute forward. skipping to the end of the commercial is sometimes worse
