[mythtv-users] Transcoding aborted, cutlist changed

[Steve Briggs]

In case someone else has this problem, here's a strange 
problem I've seen occasionally:

I do lossless transcoding from MPEG-4->MPEG-4 for 
commercial removal.  Occasionally, the transcoding
process will immediately abort with the following 
messages:

mythbackend.log:2006-03-06 05:14:15.541 Transcoding aborted, cutlist changed
mythbackend.log:2006-03-06 05:14:15.543 Transcoding /video/mythtv/1033_200603060
20000.nuv aborted because of cutlist update

I have no idea what's special about the few recordings
it fails on (no, I'm not currently editing them, nor could
I find any differences in the recorded table).
What I ended up doing to "fix" it was to delete all the 
recordedmarkup entries for those recordings.  I didn't 
see any obvious differences between the recordedmarkup 
table for those recordings, but I'm not an expert on it 
-- and it looks like it's only used for MPEG-2 recordings 
anyways.

Steve
