How do you change the default transcode policy? I once tried a transcode, which went forever and I never saw any actual difference in files. I think it probably made the file so huge that I didn't have enough space within the ten gigs I had when trialling myth and so the transcoder gave up.
I would like to try again now though and convert to MPEG4/XviD or whatever but I would like to make sure I am going to the right format.
