I'm getting a bit lost in the settings with MythTv -- where do you
setup automatic transcoding? I figured out how to transcode after a
recording has already occured...
One way is in the job settings section of the recording options.
When you go to schedule a new recording, there is a section called "job
options" or "post recording processing" or something to that effect in
the recording options menu. You can set a job over there.
The main way to do it from the mythtv settings is inside recording
profiles though.
On one page of the recording profile you are setting up (recording
profiles is under settings>TV settings> recording profiles
There is a checkbox for "automatically transcode.

Probably what I wrote before was not very clear-sorry. Say you start
out at the main menu; there is "watch TV" "media library", etc. on that
page. From there , at the bottom there is an option, "utilities/setup",
unless you renamed it yourself in one of the xml files (or maybe it got
renamed in an svn version). Go and select the utilities/setup option.
In there you will have a bunch of options "general" "media settings" "TV
settings" etc. Select TV settings, and in that menu there is going to
be an option "recording profiles". Select that and then select the
profile you normally use to record TV, probably called "default". In
there go through the pages hitting next and around the third to last
page there should be an option to automatically transcode recordings I
believe.
I haven't actually checked the box myself; I don't autotranscode. But
I'm pretty sure I remember seeing it in the recording profiles section.
Can someone correct me if I'm wrong? I can't actually go and check the
machine right now as I'm not home.
The other thing I was saying before was when you record a program you
could go and edit the options and set a user job to run. this way you
can transcode on a show by show basis. Maybe some shows you are
archiving while others you're watching right away then throwing away etc.
