Michael as I'd much rather only make the HD recordings into mkv only
instead of the non-HD recordings which work as mpeg2

  VRES=`grep Video  temp$$.txt | head -n1 | cut -f 11,11 -d' '`
   if [ "${VRES}" = "1440x1080" ] ; then
      echo "HD recording Remuxing to mkv" >> log$$

      filename=`mediainfo '--Inform=General;%FileName%' "$1"`

      OUTFILE="$filename".mkv

      CMD="ionice -c3 mythffmpeg -fflags +genpts -i $TEMPHEAD.m2v -i
$TEMPAUDIO -vcodec copy -acodec copy $OUTFILE "

      # tell mythDB about new filename

      echo "update recorded set basename='${OUTFILE}' where chanid=$chanid
and starttime='$starttime';" | mysql -N -u${DBUserName} -p${DBPassword}
-h${DBLocalHostName} ${DBName}
   else
      CMD="ionice -c3  mplex -o "$1" -V -f 9 $TEMPHEAD.m2v $TEMPAUDIO"
      OUTFILE="$1"
   fi

Only Problem is mediainfo '--Inform=General;%FileName%' "$1"` returns
nothing so the intial run was as file called .mkv So I've since removed the
filename variable and made OUTFILE="$1".mkv instead

$ mediainfo '--Full' /storage2/recordings/4032_20130702074000.mpg.old

$

Cheers,
