[mythtv-users] Automatic and manualy scheduled recordings not working.

[XeNoS]

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone has run into the problem of transcoding of
recorded television, from MPEG-2 to MPEG4, not working. In System
Status > Job Queue, all of the transcoding jobs are in "Errored"
status. I can't for the life of me figure out why.

This is from the "-v all" output from mythbackend:
