[mythtv-users] mythexport and xvid

[Bob Gamble]

Hi,

I used to be able to run nuvexport in a terminal and get an easy to use
interface for converting my myth programs to xvid and other formats.  Now
that mythexport has been made the preferred way (I think), I need to figure
out how to get settings that work in ubuntu 9.1.

I tried some settings but haven't gotten a configuration that works.  Before
I was able to watch the shrunken xvid with vlc on whatever display I wanted
with nice results.  Now I can't get a configuration that will even convert
to xvid.  Here is a block with errors I get:

My configuration is:

Size: 512x288
Aspect: 16x9
Audio Bitrate: 192kb
Video Bitrate: 768kb
Codec: xvid
Delete Period: 7
Deinterlace: Yes
Multi-threading: Yes

Would someone be willing to share xvid settings that would work as well as
iPhone settings?  Thank you.
