<p>I’m talking about both. I go through and edit recordings, then
transcode then, replacing the old file and leaving the new file
as a recording in its place. I can go through and play it from
the recordings screen with no problem.</p>

I have automated scripts that transcode recordings to h246 mkv and
replace the original recordings in the storage group when my disk
usage exceeds 50%. You need to update the database with a new file
name ending in mkv and run mythcommflag --rebuild. Also I found it
necessary to update the recording duration in the recordedmarkup
table. Script is here

All of my scripts are there under
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://code.google.com/p/mythtv-scripts/source/browse/trunk">https://code.google.com/p/mythtv-scripts/source/browse/trunk</a> but
they are not documented and may be difficult to understand, but they
are working and running in my setup.<br>
