[mythtv-users] Nuvexport problem transcoding divx to xvid (May be a mythtranscode issue)

[maillist at citadelsystems.net]

Does anyone know why nuvexport will not transcode a DIVX to an xvid? 

The following is my session. It looks like mythtranscode doesn't do
anything. I did use the --debug option and tried the commands on the
commandline. The mythtranscode command just came back to a prompt right
away. 

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
