I've just tried this and it works great.

Question is, how do I get the same parameters passed across to
mythtranscode from the 'x' command in the edit screen of mythtv playback
for an EXISTING recording. I can't find anywhere for a current recording
to be able to select the transcode options or profile so I can't seem to
be able to select between mpeg2-mpeg2 or mpeg2->mpeg4.

Thanks...
