[mythtv] Transcode problem?

[Harry Dellicker]

Hello,

I'm new to the developers list but not new to myth which I have been 
using for a couple of years.

I am running (perhaps ill advisedly) the svn trunk code on my production 
machine.

I have noticed during the past month or so that transcoded files have 
roughly doubled in size from what they used to be.  I have always run 
transcode in the "Auto-detect" mode.  Files that used to average about 
0.75 GB / hour of regular definition TV now take up about 1.44 GB / hour.

Has anyone else seen this?  Is it a bug or a design change?  Is there 
any way to get back to the previous behavior?

If I try to run transcode explicitly in "Medium" or "Low" mode it 
immediately errors out.  It will only run in "Auto-detect" or "High."

Regards,
Harry Dellicker
