I use Avidemux interactively. There was a script written by Robert MacNamera which translated MythTV cutpoints into an Avidemux compatible edit file.<br>
<br>
I did not find the automatic commercial cut points in MythTV to be that accurate plus Avidemux will not allow you to undo or modify an edit once committed.<br>
<br>
After editing many videos in Avidemux the manual effort does not seem that onerous. I do a regular hour tv show in 3-5 minutes tops.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>I find that the editor right in MythTV will let me do it in about the same amount of time, particularly with the latest modifications. After that, you could easily setup a user job to transcode with whatever you want pretty much. Additionally, I'm mostly pleased with the success rate of mythcommflag on my recordings, although not with the speed of it with dealing with high def H.264, but not much can be done about that.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I also wrote a script (like 6 years or so back) that would do the same translation. It used to be distributed as part of nuvexport, but was ripped out once mythtranscode had MPEG2->MPEG2 "lossless" transcoding, as that's what I was using it for. </div>
