[mythtv-users] mythtranscode results in 15GB files

[Shawn]

Yup, mp3 would be the common thing in both scenarios where my recordings
get oversized. Well, that and the mythtranscode program itself.

All recording profiles are setup for ivtv have 4500 - 6000 bitrate and
48k/384kbps mp3, and the transcoder goes to MPEG4 at 1800kbps and
128kbps/quality 8 mp3.

If I could examine the nuv that results, I'd be happy, but tcprobe does
not understand its format, and I'm not a video file god like some folks
here.

My best option to date is to write a script to kill the transcoder job
that's creating the humungo file if it happens.
