I think I have a partial solution. I built the SVN version of mythtranscode and it appears to get through just fine (I'm not somewhere where I can watch the output, but it finished without errors and in a reasonable amount of time) - however the new mythtranscode doesn't play well with my current myth install (version

<br><br>Do I continue trying to wedge the newer mythtranscode in? Do I update to SVN? atrpms has a slightly version of myth (0.20.2-169.fc6), but I'm not sure that has any relevant changes I need for mythtranscode.<br>
<br>Does anyone have any advice on either front? Thanks!<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 11/28/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">John Westlund</b> <<a href="mailto:john.westlund@gmail.com">john.westlund@gmail.com
