Comment (by Phil <pmagnone@…>):
I'm doing a lossless transcode of an MPEG-2 TV recording (720P w/ AC-3
audio) just to snip the commercial breaks, at which point I usually use
Handbrake if I want to archive the video with better compression. I've
tried transcoding multiple shows from multiple channels, but I still get
the same result. Each time it stalls at 80-90% and "mythtranscode" shows
~100% CPU usage in "top", and I have to kill the process manually.
Here's a 60 second, 99MB clip from near the end of one of those recordings
(used "ffmpeg -vcodec copy -acodec copy -ss 00:31:45 -t 60 -i [input].mpg
[output].mpg").

While navigating my recordings directory, I noticed that there was a
*.mpg.tmp file for at least some of the shows I tried to transcode. Near
as I can tell, the transcode jobs actually finished (the files play back
without any issue), but the mythtranscode process never exited correctly.
