Just to carry on with this part of the thread... I transcoded one of my (AverMedia) DVB-T shows to MPEG4, using the default settings (i.e I just changed the MPEG2 recording profile from RTJpeg to MPEG4). The file shrunk which is great, and I kinda was able to watch the video from over MythWeb but I decided to see how said show looks from within MythTV.
As I selected the show from the Watch Recordings screen, it played a couple of frames (I think) then caused a massive lockup of my machine resulting in a power off/on restart :( (which was a bummer becuase I was recording the pilot of Desperate Housewives :P ) So, my question. Should I be able to view the MPEG4 transcoded files using the Watch Recordings screen just the same as the normal MPEG2 recordings? I havenot myself changed file locations, names or anything. I am using DVB-T card, MythTV 0.161 from ATrpms on FC2. If you need anymore information let me know.
