Not actually sure on the answer to this, but I think the situation is
that you can't transcode to MPEG2. I have DVB-T tuner cards which
capture MPEG2 and I wanted to transcode them to smaller MPEG2 files
but there's no option to do that. Then I found something about
updating some settings in MySQL which enable the MPEG2 transcode
option. However, any transcodes I did with this failed so I gave up.
