[mythtv-users] Transcoding not working

[Roy van der Kuil]

Hi,

I have the same problem. A while ago someone else posted a solution (that I
do not understand yet) to this problem. It seems the problem occurs when the
source is 'mpg'. At least so far I have only seen people using some kind of
dvb-X standard running into this problem.

His solution was to switch enconding to mpeg4 instead of the defualt (moving
jpeg?)

Kind regards,
Roy
