Hi Roger, this is all interesting as I only (well, mostly) use MVPMC remote myth front ends (I have been trying a Galaxy IPTV 3500, but the MythTV's UPNP or the Galaxy keeps hanging). Converting the HD to SD resolution and the AC3 audio to mpeg audio on the fly was what I was looking into. People (I think you) have had success w/VLC and there is the possibility that something called GMyth might work as well. But either method, I believe, would skirt the skip forward / backwards benefits that people have been adding to the MVPMC/mythtv code (well, I assume as much - am I right?). Transcoding a show after recording would probably work better. I rarely view a show in progress and I suspect, even after transcoding, the ATSC programs will still look better then the OTA NTSC programs. I am wonder, however, your script you posted several days ago. That one was for transcoding the AC3 to mpeg audio? Does it do away w/the AC3 audio? Or does it leave it intact. If so, I am wondering if the mpeg audio will somehow keep the AC3 audio in sync - provided the AC3 starts off in sync...have you noticed this? ...thoughts? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
