[mythtv] transcode hangs after finishing with 0.22

I'm running mythtv-0_22-common-0.22-0.pm.6.1 on openSuse 11.0 and since upgrading from 0.21
I've always a lot of transcode tasks hanging obviously after they finished their job.

E.g. today:

root      7532     1  0 06:15 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/mythtranscode -j 3524 -V 4194307 -p autodetect
root      7685     1  0 07:26 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/mythtranscode -j 3526 -V 4194307 -p autodetect
root      8687     1  0 14:04 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/mythtranscode -j 3528 -V 4194307 -p autodetect
root      8749     1  0 14:29 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/mythtranscode -j 3530 -V 4194307 -p autodetect
root      8881     1  0 14:59 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/mythtranscode -j 3532 -V 4194307 -p autodetect
root      9427     1  0 17:24 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/mythtranscode -j 3535 -V 4194307 -p autodetect
root     15948     1  0 18:31 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/mythtranscode -j 3537 -V 4194307 -p autodetect

Doing an strace -p 7532 shows:
Process 7532 attached - interrupt to quit
futex(0x80a3584, FUTEX_WAIT_PRIVATE, 1, NULL

So it seems a thread is hanging waiting for something which does not happen ...

In the mythtv logfile, I see that the jobs have finished, e.g.
...
2009-12-18 17:24:49.224 JobQueue: Transcode Finished: Hinterm Sofa an der Front: Autodetect (1.2 GB)                  
2009-12-18 18:31:40.452 transcode: Transcode Finished: Still Standing: Autodetect (1.4 GB)
(which correspond to the last 2 jobs from the above ps output)

Anybody here having the same problem ?
Any developer with an idea what could be wrong ?
