First, I _know_ I need to update to the latest MythTV, and I really should
have already moved on from Ubuntu 14.04.6, but I've been busy and what
ain't broke don't get fixed.
I have only now been interested in converting an off-the-air recording by
removing the cutlist and putting it onto a DVD. I made all the cuts at
keyframes. When I tried running mythtranscode manually with:
mythtranscode --chanid 1265 --starttime 20200518025900 -m --honorcutlist -o
\ ~/vid/test.mpg
I got an empty test.mpg file and a _lot_ of "Warning: partial frame found!"
messages followed by:
No more queue slots!
Transcoding /video1/recordings/1265_20200518025900.mpg failed
Looking at various pages in the MythTV wiki pointed to possible
alternatives, but they seem to depend on other programs that no longer
exist or at least aren't available from the package managers.
The video in question has five internal cuts to be made, along with
trimming off the beginning and the end, so there are a manageable number of
cutpoints to enter manually if I knew how to get the right data and what to
do with it.
Any suggestion on how to get this done that won't involve reinstalling a
newer version of MythTV and/or upgrading from the last great Mythbuntu
distro would be welcome.
