At your service.

Yes, but...

It means you have to have the compile-time library
and header for LAME installed and you had to have
run ffmpeg's configure script with --enable-mp3lame.

You're on the right track.  Looks like perhaps
your ffmpeg doesn't have LAME compiled in.

P.S. On a side note, I think I might have some time
to do a bit more coding again.  I'm thinking that
inside of MythTV, it basically has ffmpeg minus
the front end (libavcodec/libavformat) so why not
have mythtranscode do the conversion internally?
Given the current state of mythtranscode, I think
nuvexport would still have to be used as a UI,
though.
