Hey Andy, How exactly do you configure which format to transcode to? Is it merely a case of Myth knowing which format it is going to encode from (in my DVB-T case, it is MPEG2) and therefore, you don't actually assign a recording profile option anywhere, you just configure the MPEG2 entry in Setup > TV Playback > Recording Profiles?
I have never really understood it and never gotten it to work :( Cheers, Dave On Fri, 28 Jan 2005 21:43:34 +0000, Andy Whitworth <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I've just edited commercials out of a DVB sourced program and the resultant > transcoded file size was about 3x the original!!
