I have managed to setup a proper ffmpeg job to do the transcoding as a user job but the files all get named by $chanid_$starttime.m4v<br>
<br>
What I have managed to brute force is a portion of the transcode script that does a dump of the mythconverg database , looks for the particular file name and then does a rename. Given the various spaces,tabs, file extenstions its been a pain.<br>
<br>
<br>
My final working method (or at least It worked the last time) is:<br>
<br>
mysql -uroot -ppasswordremoved mythconverg -B --exec "select basename,title,subtitle from recorded;" | grep ${CHANID}_${STARTTIME} | sed 's/.mpg//'| sed 's/\t/ /g' | while read b NAME ;do mv {$TMPDIR}/${CHANID}_${<u></u>STARTTIME}.m4v /roku/"$NAME".m4v;done<br>
<br>
CHANID and STARTTIME are variables passed to the script ($1 and $2) from the user job setup.<br>
<br>
NAME ends up being the title,subtitle of the recording regardless of length as I like.<br>
<br>
I looked at adding in some additional variables to the user job, but I couldn't figure out how to get $1 and $2 to be the first and second option passed to the script, and $3 to be "all the rest"<br>
<br>
My problem is that the program has spaces in the name as well as in the description such that $3 ends up only being "days" instead of "days of our lives"<br>
<br>
<br>
Perhaps I'm going about this all wrong. I'm by no means a programmer and I'm not that great of a trial and error hacker.<br>
<br>
Would love some thoughts on this. I'm giving up for the night but plan on working this again tomorrow when I get home.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance..<br>
