[clug] transcoding MythTV files to divx or DVD size

[Steve Walsh]

I'm no MythTV guru, but I think your answer was in the original Message output;

<snip>
Stream #0.0[0xab4]: Video: mpeg2video, yuv420p, 720x576, 10000 kb/s, 25.00 fps(r)
<snip>
Error: THIS IS AN MPEG1 FILE


MythArchive is expecting mpeg2, and you're feeding it mpeg1 (possibly). Confirm 
that the file is what it says it is (I think ffmpeg will allow you to do this).
