I'm using Autodetect from within MythTV, there is no specific option
for lossless transcode and when it used to work it was said to select
Autodetect to do a lossless mpeg2 transcode.

on the commandline I'm using
nice -n 17 mythtranscode --chanid <chanid> --starttime <starttime> -m
-honorcutlist -nodblog -loglevel debug -f /tmp -o <output file and
location>

which, as I said, is working perfectly on the few recordings I've
gotten around to setting up a cut list.
