This is using a recent version of nuvexport and
Mythtv 0.15. nuvexport is failing because the fifodir_nnn
directory is not getting created. Is this something that
nuvexport does or should mythtranscode be creating it?

[root at tvsrv tv]# nice -n 19 mythtranscode --showprogress -p autodetect
                 -c 1040 -s 2004-10-27-22-29-00
                 -f "/tmp/fifodir_16137/" 2>&1 > /dev/null
Couldn't create fifo for file: /tmp/fifodir_16137//vidout
No such file or directory
Error initializing fifo writer.  Aborting

If I create fifodir_16137 everything works fine.

[mythtv at tvsrv mythtv]$ ls -ld /tmp
drwxrwxrwt  20 root root 4096 Nov  2 05:25 /tmp
[mythtv at tvsrv mythtv]$
