[mythtv-users] 0.25 lookup metadata as part of jobqueue?

Thanks, I only asked because there's no mention of the --logfile fag in the 
wiki entry for mythjobqueue.  Anyways, I tried it last night and 3 of 5 
transcodes failed.  However, mythtranscode.log and mythjobqueue.log are both 
completely blank, even with using the -- logfile flag.
