syntax is:
1st check if the cutlist looks sane by
mythcommflag --getcutlist -c 1299 -s 20090407113000
if sane:
mythtranscode -c 1299 -s 20090407113000
should result in a smaller file with .tmp added to the original name.
after checking everything is OK
mv -f 1299_20090407113000.mpeg.tmp 1299_20090407113000.mpeg
Done
