Thanks a lot, Doug. I have see your post from December as well.

I tried manual editing of the HD-PVR recorded mpg file 
in Avidemux 2.5.2 on my Windows machine and that worked quite nice.
I followed the suggestions here:

Worst come worst I can do the editing manually.
However, I was hoping to avoid the manual editing (maybe I am lazy)
and I like the idea of using an automated user job especially since currently Myth 
can generate the cutlist quite nicely.

Do you think it is an issue with Avidemux 2.5.x package on Ubuntu 9.10?
Have you tried your compiled version of Avidemux v2.4.3 with the
Robert McNamara's lamlindoro script? Did that have audio sync issues as well?

It would be sweet if we could automate the transcoding/cutting of the HD-PVR recordings.
