[mythtv-users] mythfilldatabase problem (Mandrake 9.1)

[Craig M. Hindall]

I have been trying to use Rob Snow's encoding scripts
from the contrib directory of the CVS.  I wanted 
to transcode some shows that I have recorded using
mythtv.  The transcoding works great about half the
time.

I am using MythTV 0.8, unstable debian packages on
a Debian sid system.  It has a 1.1 GHz Duron, 128 MB
RAM, and I am using a TV Wonder VE to capture.  I am
using the default MPEG4 capture settings in MythTV.

I have compiled MPlayer 0.9 with the mythtv patch, and
after trying unsuccessfully to transcode some of the
shows I tried just viewing the "bad" nuv files in
MPlayer.  It crashes, I assume at the same place
that mencoder crashes when it is trying to encode
the files.

My question is where to go from here?  I read the
mplayer README about reporting bugs and they made
it pretty clear not to report a bug if you know your
file is "broken."  Would mythtv nuv files fall into
that category?  Besides, would they just assume it
was a bug introduced by the patch?
