What format did you transcode to? AFAIK, the PVR-350 only
plays MPEG2 streams. Transcoding to MPEG2 is disabled by
default, so you're probably not transcoding to MPEG2.

I believe I transcoded to MPEG4 <br>

Can transcoded files be played back to a TV through a PVR-350?

Okay. MPEG2.<br>

Enable the MPEG2 transcoding option (you've got to hack a C++
file and then rebuild MythTV), and then select MPEG2 output
format instead of MPEG4 or RTJPEG. Then you'll have to arrange
to run the commerical-flagging program with the -rebuild flag
to regenerated the seek database for the file.

How would I do this? Has anybody already hacked the C++ code for
transcoding to MPEG2? Will this even compress the file enough to make
it worth it?<br>

Thanks Dan<br>
