Right. It was just less confusing, internally, to have all Myth-recorded files use the same extension. > Under what circumtances does Myth actually produce a real > Nuppelvideo file? (Sorry, I'm not being deliberately dense on this) None. Myth does not produce 'real' NuppelVideo files. Isaac modified the Nuppel container format for his own purposes. The 'vanilla' NuppelVideo format only uses RTjpeg and (IIRC) raw audio. Isaac made modifications to the format to support using MPEG-4 video and mp3 audio, as well as other modifications to support certain other Myth features, I think. This is why a 'vanilla' copy of MPlayer will play regular Nuppel files but not Myth Nuppel files. -JAC _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
