[mythtv-users] MythArchive always fails durning mythtranscode

[Stephen Atkins]

I didn't receive any hints as to what might be going wrong when I posted
a week ago so I'll ask again.  Mytharchive is always failing when its
using mythtranscode to remove the cut list from the recording.  But when
I run it manually it works just fine.  I'm including the output from the
log file below in hopes someone can point me in the right direction.

Mytharchive log output:
