I suppose you mean on the dev side.

I'm still having problems with some recordings because of the ticket 
#2468 swapping of audio tracks - eg the current Planet Earth series on 
BBC or the 'How Music Works' series on Four.  Passing these through 
mythtranscode to top-and-tail or strip commercials puts the 'audio 
description' (or the silent) track on top, and later passes through 
mythtranscode during mytharchive strip off all sound.  I've had some 
success by using avidemux to copy the virgin recording to MPEG PS 
format; copying after mythtranscode seems to produce A/V sync problems.

If anyone has better suggestions for how to work round this prior to a 
mythtranscode rewrite I'd be grateful.  I'm afraid I haven't 
investigated projectX yet.
