Thanks Eric, this seems more like what I need, for clarification though, as
I consider the user job setup the command "mythvidexport.py -- cutlist
%JOBID%" should an edited cutlist, without the need to transcode first?
And curiously enough there is a mythexport in my user jobs, probably
causing the problems that started this thread, I'm guessing? It is likely
baggage from something setup in 12.04 and brought forth with my database to
14.04. I think I'll remove it from the user jobs when I put mythvidexport
 in and remove mythexport once and for all, via Software Centre, unless
anyone can see a reason not to.
