Lane,
   This was a couple of months ago. I just tried nuvexport again and
got the same problem. Let's jsut start new.

1) man nuvexport starts with: 

"DESCRIPTION: nuvexport is a program written in perl built to assist
in exporting .NUV files from mythtv into various formats. Most of the
usage is interactive with the program."

Since it says it's interactive I try nuvexport from the command line.

mark at dragonfly ~ $ nuvexport

First the terminal clears and then I get:

Loading MythTV recording info.
100%
Found 9 files, but no matching database entries.

mark at dragonfly ~ $

It doesn't seem to be interactive. In that case I try runnign it again
with the name of a file I've recorded:

mark at dragonfly /TVstorage $ nuvexport 1005_20050524200000_20050524210000.nuv

and I get the same results:

Loading MythTV recording info.
100%
Found 9 files, but no matching database entries.

mark at dragonfly /TVstorage $

I posted this quandry probably 8 weeks ago. No need to go looking.
This is all I've been able to do.

How do I run this and make it useful?

Thanks,
Mark
