We want to transcode all of our TCM movies to h.264 using Handbrake. I found a script for doing that which I will alter for our needs (I'm not afraid of scripts, but I'm no Perl expert).<br>
<br>
All of the documentation that I have found so far talk about transcoding recorded files. But I have a bunch of .ts files (with mpeg-2 1080i content) that I want to run through Handbrake. </blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>The way I see this is that you are moving the files from something or somewhere into a mythTV video library folder. Since they are going to be imported into the database by scanning, I don't know why you wouldn't do everything with an external script before even getting mythTV to scan for new files. </div>
