Ya, it sounds like your problem and mine are very similar, cause
whenever I had transcoded a file without an index, it was always
incredibly hard to get the file back into a working state. rebuilding
the index didn't always work, and if I was able to get seeking to work
again, teh video would break up all over the place, and myth would
yell at me saying that when I tried to seek I wasn't seeking to a
keyframe. I haven't tried exporting a corrupt file though, so this is
all just a theory.


So, am I correct in saying that MythTV can play/seek the transcoded file because it's got keyframes in the database? Since mplayer announces, "duplicate frames," do you suppose it's possible to repair the broken transcoded file?
