I feel the problem is with the input... Sorry for the confusion.  Yes I
record video from SVIDEO IN and for audio I have the 2 RCA cables merged
together using an RCA to phono adapter plugged into the tuners audio in.   I
could try recording from coaxial cable to see if the resulting encoded audio
plays back properly. I can try this tonight when I get home.

I suppose there is a possibility that the audio is encoded properly in the
mpg file, but is mangled by a mythtv audio setting before being passed
through spdif causing the sound to only come through my center channel.

DVDs sound amazing so I assumed there was a problem with my audio input as
it looked physically damaged.
