[mythtv-users] transcode command line to prevent 1080i grey bars?

[Tom Dexter]

I've been trying basically forever to figure out how to create DVDs
from HD DVB recordings that actually have audio and video in sync.
I've ended up dropping this awful project countless times out of
frustration...sometimes I think I'm more likely to build a nuclear
reactor out of balsa wood...:D.

I've seen suggestions here about demuxing with projectx.  I've gotten
much farther doing that, and it does seem to correct sync issues.
However now I'm running into the issue where transcode interprets
1080i as 1920x1088 and creates that grey bar at the bottom.  Note that
this is the transcode command like program, not mythtranscode.

Does anyone know a command line option in transcode that will prevent
or correct that?

Thanks in advance.
