keep it in videos. It will look much better than any version recorded
off something like a pvr-250, and may look better than a version recorded
off the SDTV digital subchannel, if that's what you are doing.
I am recording the SD versions on a pvr-250.
Well, I've tried various ways to transcode/downres the shows from the HD channels and I can get that working well enough for actual Mythfrontends. My problem is that I am also using some Hauppauge MediaMVP psuedo-frontends and I can't seem to get a working mencoder or other command to transcode down and play correctly, i.e. with correct A/V sync and the ability to skip forward/backward correctly. Yeah, that's really an issue for the MVP list, but that's why it's not a real suitable solution at the moment. Anyone care to share there favorite command lines to downres HDTV content?
I know I can turn off duplicate checking but that's not ideal either. For instance, right now if you turn off duplicate checking you would get about 1000 different copies of "Revelations"...
I think it is around line 1895 in scheduler.cpp under the mythbackend.
