[mythtv-users] Mythtranscode and H.264

Hi,

Trying to losslessly transcode BBC HD h.264 -> h.264 to cut the start and
end from a recording.  Mythtranscode dies saying  "Unknown video codec:
H.264" (more log stuff below)

Reading this thread from a few months ago
[http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/325822] it "doesn't
work".  I was wondering if anything was being done to make it work?  Or is
there another way I can chop up H.264 recordings?

Thanks,
Robert.

2008-08-11 19:29:04.269 Found video height of 1088.  This is unusual and
more than likely the video is actually 1080 so mythtranscode will treat it
as such.
