Bingo!! That was it. I couldn't install the JRE file from Sun because rpm complained about some dependancies, but it allowed me to install the JDK (version 1.5.0_04). Ensuring that I used Sun's java VM, ProjectX seems to work. For those using FC4 MythTV installed via Jarod's Guide, here are the additional steps I needed to take: 1) Install Sun's Java VM. I had to install the JDK rpm due to some dependency problems with the JRE rpm file (you might have better luck with Sun's binary installation). 2) Make sure that Xvfb is installed (apt-get install Xvfb) if you don't already have it. 3) Edit scripts/mpeg2cut-px.sh as described above by Jens Baumeister. Make sure that you use the full path to the Sun Java VM and make sure you put quotes around the line -- not being much of a PHP person, I missed this the first few times, though it would be obvious to someone else (e.g., projectx="/path/to/SunVM -jar /path/to/ProjectX.jar"). 4) When you run Martin's script, make sure you run it from the directory in which mythburn is located, and I (at least) needed to run it as root to make sure it have sufficient privileges to set the ownership of files. I think that was it. I'm burning my first DVD now, so hopefully this will be all work out!
