How do you run the transcoder manually? I dug around the help files,
but couldnt find anything.
Also, why no sound? when converted with mythmkmovie it works fine, but
with the transcoder no sound.
I dont have much use for the transcoder, it would be great to
automatically do it, but for my usage, I delete a few days after
recording, and I use mkmovie on the ones I want to keep around, moving
them into another folder with filenames I can identify with.
