Hey Everyone,

So I'm trying to get mythbrake or mythconvert setup on my slave backends so
the master can just worry about doing the recordings and I want my slaves
to worry about handling all of the jobs.  Why?  Well my slaves are VMs and
the hosts that they're on are quite beefy so I've had my 2 slaves running
there for quite some time and they flag commercials like good champs.

So I went here

https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Mythconvert
and
https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Mythbrake

But when the jobs run they just fail immediately.  I turned on the debug
flag in the scripts to see if I could see anything that really stood out to
me as oh theres the problem but I couldn't really find anything.  Is it an
issue with these scripts to use the path as myth://?

this is what mythconvert was called with

/home/mythtv/scripts/mythconvert.sh "myth://bishop/2253_20151013162900.ts"
"2253_20151013162900.ts" "2253" "20151013162900" "Bewitched" "A' Is for
Aardvark" "Sitcom "

and mythbrake was called with this

/home/mythtv/scripts/mythbrake.sh "myth://bishop/2254_20151013165900.ts"
"2254_20151013165900.ts" "2254" "20151013165900" "Bait Car" "New Orleans"
"Law "

I mean I guess if these have to run on the master then I'll move em there
but I'd rather they run from the slaves.

I'm currently running myth master (0.28)  Thank you all for your help with
this because well I'd like to move some of the recordings that I enjoy
watching over and over off to my share.
