[mythtv-users] lossless cut issues with ceton infinitv

[Doug Vaughan]

Krys,
For the moment lets put the bug reporting abort to aside and focus onthe 
pastbin of the Lossless Cut log.

1) You can ignore the "TS continuity counter not incremented prev/curr 
11/13" as this is a message from the app which is extracting the 
subtitletext track from the original recording. I do not actually know 
what the message means but it is not likely related to the video issue.
2) There is nothing obvious in the log indicating what the problem is.
3) Even though you mentionthe frozen video image happens around a 
commercial break, there is no cut list associated with the original 
video. This should not be an issue but is unusual for the general 
purpose of Lossless Cut.
4) In general issues as you describe happen when the original recording 
has some corruption in it. The MythTV player is very resilient when 
playing back corrupted recordings which failbeing lossless cuts using 
the utility mkvmerge.

If it is acceptable I would like you to try some tests.
1) Try Lossless Cut with the"-m" options on a different recording to see 
if the mkvvideo file is OK. I am trying to determine if the issue was a 
corrupted recording or an problem with all your Ceton Infinitv 
recordings. See: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Lossless_Cut#Cut_and_Save
2) Try adding a commercial cut to the original offending recording to 
see if that makes a difference. See:

Replyon this mailing list with the results and a pastebin link to any 
logs from a problem lossless cut.

With the comments that Lossless Cut working on other "Ceton Infinitv" 
installs I suspect we may be able to get this working. With that being 
said I have found that the HDHomerun has variable results when used with 
Lossless Cut. Hopefully that is not the case with a "Ceton Infinitv".
