Looking again at the log you posted: it's strange that the output of
mythtranscode is not the input to mythffmpeg. That is apparently
working with the original file. I know that some renames happen in the
mythburn script, but (although I haven't consulted the script) it
doesn't look as if that's what has happened there. I think I should
give up :-)
