[mythtv-users] Mythdvd transcode fails

Greetings

Some time in the last few weeks, an SVN update (I can't think what else it
could be) has caused my mythdvd rips to fail. Not being a regular dvd
ripper, I'm not sure exactly when it stopped working :-((

The problem is that mtd fails but there is no error message reporting
exactly what the problem is. It appears that it never actually reads
anything from the dvd itself and then instead of passing a file acoss to
transcode it just reports what the command line would be and then exits.

Anyone else seen this? This is what I see running mtd from the command
line...


The temp directory is empty as well
