OK, just to make sure I understand.  I can start mythjobqueue with --logfile 
/var/log/mythtv/mythjobqueue.log.  That should give me logging for what 
mythjobqueue is doing?  I have a bunch of recordings going tonight that I'll 
be transcoding so if that's correct, I'll shutdown mythbackend and fire up 
mythjobqueue and see what I get for you guys.
