[mythtv-users] mytharchive problem

[John Pierce]

Hello list members.

I have recently installed mythtv on kubuntu 8.0.4 and have experienced
the following problem.

I have recorded a program and want to make a dvd out of it, and
mytharchive fails after starting
mplex.

This is the output from mplex when I go to the work directory of
mytharchive and enter the command
manually.

mplex -o final.mpg stream.mv2 stream0.ac3

   INFO: [mplex] mplex version 1.8.0 (2.2.4 $Date: 2005/08/28 17:50:54 $)
**ERROR: [mplex] File stream.mv2 unrecogniseable!
   INFO: [mplex] File stream0.ac3 looks like an AC3 Audio stream.
**ERROR: [mplex] Unrecogniseable file(s)... exiting.

I have a hophog pvr500 and when I ran mythtv-setup I chose mpeg ps in
the settings, should I have made that
a ts or some other setting?

This is a snippet from the tail end of the mytharchive log file from the run.
