Hey, Thanks for the comments. You make some good points. I didn't know it stored file size. I will fix that. About the two instances, I think it was designed in a specific manner for a specific job. It is not supposed to be run as a user job. But I can make amends to allow for running it as a myth user job. In this mode, it will run nuvexport and update database for a particular file. It can be easily supported with 'if filename arg is given to the script, do that file only, otherwise do *.mpg'

Hi again,

youre not updating filesize in the database, so mythweb still shows the
old mpeg size :-)
