<a href="mailto:mythtv-users@mythtv.org">mythtv-users@mythtv.org</a>><br>Subject: [mythtv-users] Converting "mythtranscoded" files to avi...<br><br>> A question for the transcoding gurus out there.<br>>
<br>> I currently use the inbuilt Myth transcoding options to transcode many of<br>> my<br>> shows.<br>> It's set to transcode to:<br>> MPEG4<br>> 2400kbps<br>> MP3 audio with 32K sample rate.
<br>><br>> This seems to produce NUV files (and good results played back on MythFE or<br>> VLC player on Windows).<br>><br>> For Xmas I got a Yamada DVD player that can play back DIVX, XVID, MP4 etc.<br>>
<br>> Unfortunately it won't play the NUV files even if I rename them to AVI.<br>><br>> I've tried getting ffmpeg to rewrite them to an AVI container using:<br>> ffmpeg -i FILE.nuv -f avi -vcodec copy -acodec copy
OUT.avi<br>><br>> However, what I get then is a file where the video plays at roughly twice<br>> the speed of the audio!<br>><br>> So my questions are:<br>> 1) HOW do I convert the NUV files to a playable AVI (as in playable on
<br>> a "standards" based divx/mp4 player)?<br>> 2) Can I do this WITHOUT further transcoding?<br>> 3) Can I get Myth to do the transcoding correctly in the first place?<br>> (I'd accept having to rename the file, re-transcoding seems a bit
<br>> pointless).<br>><br>> Cheers<br>><br>> Steve<br>><br><br><br><br>> _______________________________________________<br>> mythtv-users mailing list<br>> <a href="mailto:mythtv-users@mythtv.org">

http://mythtv.beirdo.ca/nuvtools/nuv2avi.php</a><br>For me I the SVN version wouldn't compile until I commented out the RTjpeg<br>code. After that it worked for at least one file a few months ago. I haven't<br>used it since then.

http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users</a><br></blockquote></div><br><br>Thanks Justin,<br><br>Finally got it to compile and.... the file produced has completely corrupted sound.<br><br>However, if I replex it using:
<br><br>ffmpeg -i IN.AVI -acodec copy -vcodec copy OUT.avi<br><br>it seems to clear it up and the AVI works perfectly on my DVD player (aside from aspect ratio issues but that's another story!)<br><br>I finally got a decent nuvexport, well I say decent the bit rate is WAAAY out and of course it forces a recode...
