<div>ok, so I suggest you use a system event to create the new
mythlink symlinks rather than rerunning mythlink every 30
minutes. You can configure mythlink to create just the new
file/recording symlink rather than checking every file. Then
set mythlink to run a full re-run once a night instead.</div>

<div>How are you finding the recordings you want to convert to
m4v's? I would use a user-job probably so I presume you are
also. You can then use the %DIR%/%FILE% to locate the correct
file and provide it to FFMPEG or whatever you are using
(MythExport?) and %STARTTIME%-%TITLE%-%SUBTITLE% as the output
filename.</div>

Perhaps its the non programmer in me but given my title/subtitle
will be variable lengths how do I take the %TITLE% and %SUBTITLE%
variables and get them in my script.<br>
<br>
I have been referencing the 2 variables as:<br>
<br>
CHANID=$1<br>
STARTTIME=$2<br>
<br>
and when I tried to do $3 as my title it only gets "days" versus
"days of our lives" Perhaps I can specify a different delimiter in
my file??? Again this is when I'm officially over my skis...<br>
