No. :) nuvexport can see everything in the database, and I can get it as
far as starting the transcode, but then it fails saying "Can't Find
recording <start time>" right before the list of 'waiting to create
fifo's so nuvexport is seeing the db fine, it's looking for something
else that I can't figure out when it comes time to do the actual
transcode.  Don't know if it's mythtranscode or nuvexport honestly.

I have successfully used nuvexport already on some recordings I did with
the default profile, so that's why I think it's a profile problem.
Maybe? I'll try a few other things and see if I can get anywhere.
