[mythtv-users] Auto Transcoding Not Working

OK, not sure what that means: I don't see a tuner-specific transcoding
option. Right now I have the "Default Transcoder" set to Medium Quality, and
the Deferral days for auto-transcode set to 0. Plus "run transcoder" is
checked. There is a "Medium Quality" transcoder profile that I use
frequently.

OK, I've definitely got stuff setup the way I want as far as transcoding
profiles go. The Default is showing the dropdown list that matches my setup
recording profiles.

When I look at the actual log, though, I don't see it looking for any
transcoders at all. I set up a show, recorded it, checked the logs and found
it only listed for one thing. (This is looking at mythbackend.log.)

Thanks for the help.
