I'm using Ubuntu Hardy with MythTV installed from the latest packages and both nuvexport and ffmpeg compiled from latest source (NOT PACKAGES) as per the various HOWTO's that google turned up.
I'm trying to use nuvexport to export UK radio programs recorded from DVB-T (Freeview) to MP3. I have had this all working fine on a machine running Feisty up until a recent hardware failure - I've been successfully producing MP3's like this for over a year. This just makes my current difficulties more frustrating!
Nuvexport starts up just fine. I then hit a number to select a show from the list and the terminal window goes blank. If I wait and do nothing then it stays blank. If I hit [return] then i get the following:
<br><br><code>Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/local/share/nuvexport/nuv_export/ui.pm line 320, <STDIN> line 1. </code><br><br>
followed by the 'You have chosen to export 1 episode:' prompt.
If I then select 'c' to continue the following happens:
<br><br><code>
Choose a function, or episode(s) to remove: c<br>
Where would you like to export the files to? [/home/user]<br>
Enable Myth cutlist? [Yes] no<br>
Audio bitrate? [128]<br>

I've googled this thing for a week. I've tried with fresh installations of mythbuntu and mythdora. I've tried building mythtv from source. I've tried everything I can think of and this thing is driving me crazy!!!!!<br>
<br>
I know I'm making a stupid mistake somewhere - but I'd REALLY appreciate some help with this.<br>
<br>
Yours hopefully, <br>
