Doesn't seem like it would be all that difficult. In the interim,
I think it'd be easier to do a 2-step process... convert a myth cutlist to
a "normal" cutlist, then import it into gopdit. I'm not really excited
about requiring gopdit to use the database... more integration means more
house of cards..... keep it simple.
I also do all of my "processing" offline. My mythbox is at home,
un-networked, and no burners or much HD space. I bring .nuv/.sql files
into school where my real machine is to process/burn, so reading .sql
files directly is a less integrated approach.
Of course, once the functionality is rolled into MythTV, it's a
nonissue. Basically, if this could be done well, a "lossless transcode"
right from MythTV would actually *delete* the original file. Then the
resulting .nuv would already be ready to roll.
