[mythtv-users] transcoding to flv - trouble

[Geoff Fox]

I would like to transcode my video to flv and have found the Wiki entry
<http://www.mythtv.info/wiki/index.php/Stream_mythtv_recordings_from_mythweb_using_flash_video>which
describes the process.  No problem - except it doesn't work for me.

I am assuming a card which encodes natively to MPEG-2 is necessary.  My old
Hauppauge card only allows me MPEG-4.

In the process described in the Wiki, error messages are sent to /dev/null.
But, if I enter the commands manually, I can see ffmpeg saying it doesn't
recognize .nuv files.  Doesn't it?  Isn't ffmpeg the engine behind
nuvexport?

Somewhere there must be a way for ffmpeg to be happier with .nuv.  I just
don't know what that is.

So, I am confused and looking for any kind of guidance.  I'd like to use the
Wiki solution, because this conversion can be easily run as a job, and I
like the idea of the clickable icons within mythweb leading directly to
streaming video.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

As a two day user of Myth TV (running happily on a  very old AMD500), I am
very impressed with the system's elegance.

All the best,
Geoff
