[mythtv-users] debugging nuvexport?

[Cory Papenfuss]

 	I thought I'd tried the -debug, but apparently I didn't have my dashes 
or cases in the right place.  It appears to go now with that, and the reason 
for the abort should have been obvious to me... no cutlist found!  Ooops... 
Don't I feel sheepish.
