 Hello all!

 I'm trying to use the new mpeg2 transcoding which was introduced to MythTV
 in ticket #158. However, I'm experiencing a problem with mythtranscode
 just quitting without actually doing anything. Here comes the log:

 I should add a few words on my setup, I think. I'm running Debian Sarge
 and MythTV is built from yesterday's SVN. I recorded this show off my DBox
 (thanks to levon), so I think it's DVB style. Mythtranscode --mpeg2 seems
 to work ok so far on other recordings, but this one also shows an odd
 behaviour in mythfrontend: I can select two audio tracks, one being the
 regular German audio track ("unknown mp2 2ch"), the other one is called
 "unknown mp3 2ch". When I switch to the second track, I don't get any
 sound. In conclusion, I think that this is not usual for a recording, but
 it still would be nice to transcode the beast :)

 I will be glad to provide additional information as needed and I hope we
 can get this fixed somehow if it turns out to be a bug within MythTV.
