[clug] transcoding MythTV files to divx or DVD size

[Michael Cohen]

Paul,
  I used to use nuvexport once to do this and it worked ok, but in recent
  versions it had problems with video/audio sync. I since use mythtvs own
  transcode (from the gui). The result is a nuv file which mplayer can happily
  play - and thats good enough for me. The nice thing about the built in
  transcoder is that it can be done automatically in the storage options of the
  program schedule - so shows automatically get compressed after they got
  recorded. This effectively increases available storage.

  Michael.
