I'm recording radio from DVB-T.  As captured, the recordings playback 
sound with a dark screen. They can be edited and transcoded but there's 
little visual feedback.  I've used avidemux > audio > save to strip off

This is with an earlier atrpms 'bleeding' build - I had trouble with the 
editor in the current version.

I suppose this ought to work with a recording from analog STB output 
too, but I haven't tried it.
