[mythtv-users] Transcode broken after FC4 yum update

[Chris Cox, N0UK]

I thought I'd seen somethign similar to this a few days ago but now cant 
find it - grr.

I updated my old 0.18 FC4 installation yesterday using the new 0.19 
packages that have been released (Thanks one and all!).

Having done so - along with several hundred other updated packages - I now 
find that transcode no longer works.

I have been using a script for a long time that will convert VOB's to AVI 
formatted mpegs.  That now fails in the following manner:-

$ transcode -i "$VIDEO/$1.vob" -g 720x480 -f 0,1 -M 2 -V -j 0,8,0,8 -y 
xvid -w 1618 -o "$VIDEO/$1.avi" --print_status 20 --color 0

*** WARNING: The option -V is deprecated. ***
*** Transcode internal frame handling is now in YV12 / YUV420 ***
*** format by default because most codecs can only handle this format, ***
*** otherwise leading to unnecessary time and quality wasting conversions. 
***
*** If you want to have to "old" behaviour (RGB24 as internal format), ***
*** then please use the new -1/--use_rgb option ***

I tried dropping the obsolescent -V option but it makes no difference.  I 
have also tried other output codecs (tried xvid4 divx4 divx5 etc) but they 
exhibit similar results, even though they are present in the 
/usr/lib/transcode directory mentioned above.

Anyoen have suggestions on what may be the problem?
