It is not that easy. I guess the problems is in old recordings that were
broken because of the broken MPEG4->MPEG4 transcoding in MythTV 0.18.1.
These recordings are still playable in MythTV, but I can not export them via
nuvexport or play them via dsmyth. Some of them are my kids favorite
recordings, so I can not just dump them. I have tried to transcode them with
0.19, but it failed to do so.
Actually there are thumbnails for all my shows in MythWeb. For some reason
MythWeb in 0.19 just want to create new thumbnails for all the shows, so one
day when I have plenty of time, I will just find that functionality and turn
it off.
