OK I just revisited this, the particular file I'm looking at is a 25
minute manual record of which I only wanted 2 minutes, I found them
made cuts to beginning and to end respectively, saved the cuts, played
the file, opened the menu, selected "transcode" (which seems to be all
I need to do according to the wiki) and just the two minutes plays in
Myth and all 25 play when I transfer the file. What have I missed?
