[mythtv-users] MPEG2->MPEG2 cut spinning

[Brad Benson]

I've been having the exact same problem that you're reporting.  It's
not a gui problem since I actually see the avidemux gui open.  After
that though, it just sits there forever.  Interestingly, this just
started happening a few weeks ago.  I was able to successfully export
two different shows using mpeg2->mpeg2 cutting.  After that I can only
presume that I updated something to a new version and that's what
broke it.  Problem is, I can't figure out what that upgrade could have
been.  I'm running:

avidemux 2.0.34-5_test2
lve-0.040322-1.1
transcode-0.6.14-15

I don't have Xvfb installed at all, but that wasn't installed when it
was working before either.  I've also tried downgrading avidemux to
2.0.28, but with no success.
