If I try to transcode a recording after I have already transcoded it  
once (trying to figure out commercial removing) using the new mpeg 2  
transcoder, I get the following error:

2005-11-22 10:00:15.604 Transcoding aborted, need MPEG-2.

As far as I know, the file is still mpeg 2
Let me know what I need to provide.
