There is an issue w/ nuvexport in R5E50 to fix, as root:
Code:
wget http://forevermore.net/files/nuvexport-latest.tar.bz2
tar xjvf nuvexport-latest.tar.bz2
cd nuvexport-0.4
make uninstall
make install
exit

Thanks! Great job!

My mythtv user home directory is a simlink from /myth/mythtv to /home (space saving in /). This version of nuvexport only works from /myth/mythtv/nuvexport-0.4/. Is it because the directory is simlinked or is this the expected?

I think Cecil left out a few things. I had the same issue, but if you copy the nuvexport script to /usr/local/bin and copy nuvexportrc to /etc. it will work again from any where. I'm still having other issues though, xvid seems to only encode a 56kbps.

Thanks, IEnigmusI. Worked fine!

IEnigmus, was your XviD encoding working before you applied the above patch? I'm experiencing the same 56k issue but I think it's only occurred after the patch.

Nuvexport functioned correctly for me in R5C7. I upgraded to 5e50 and the script errored entirely until I patched it. Now it seems to work except that xvid encodes at 56kbps no matter what I do. :(

However, if you theory is that the script itself contains an error it is possible. Perhaps it is holding a default value and not sending the custom value to FFmpeg.

I checked https://svn.forevermore.net/nuvexport/ which is the offically unoffical Nuvexport webpage and there are no bug reports for this. I would assume that this would be a more wide spread thing if it was simply a nuvexport script typo/error.

You try running nuvexport running transcode engine (-transcode) rather than ffmpeg? I found that nuvexport and ffmpeg do not create 100% XviD compliant files. At least the transcode stuff may help you narrow down if it is an issue with nuvexport or ffmpeg.

I have not. I assume you just run that option with Nuvexport?

Example:
nuvexport -transcode

2 dashes.

nuvexport --transcode

It does indeed seem that Transcode properly Transcodes to XVID. Perhaps the version of FFmpeg that comes stock in 5e50 has had revisions to it's command line options.

Thanks for getting me on track. :)

I followed the above instructions and replaced my nuvexport with the new version.

I am able to run nuvexport as usual with the ffmpeg as the default. I normally use nuvexport to save recordings to /myth/video for later viewing (/myth/video is on separate hard drive). This has worked fine in the past, but now I am getting unwatchable "blocky" results. I tried to use transcode to see if it worked better and found that my nuvexport will not work with transcode.

The error from nuvexport --transcode is :

syntax error in /usr/share/local/nuvexport/export/transcode/SVCD.PM line 176 near "."
Compilation failed in require at /usr/local/bin/nuvexport line 51

Any ideas on the quickest/easiest way to get useful feature fixed? I am sure that it is something that I am doing wrong in the installation that is causing both problems.

I get the same error with transcode. My machine is an upgrade from R5C7. I only did the steps Cecil posted, I don't quite understand IEnigmus's post about copying files, for me everything appeared in correct location.

Thanks for your help with nuvexport.

First, I followed cecil's instructions. Still doesn't work. Then, I noted IEnigmusI's addendum. I moved nuvexportrc to /etc, but I don't quite understand "copy the nuvexport script to /usr/local/bin". What script is that? I moved all the other freshly decompressed nuvexport files to /usr/local/bin, but nuvexport --transcode still returns:

syntax error at /usr/local/share/nuvexport/export/transcode/VCD.pm line 107, near "."
Compilation failed in require at /usr/local/bin/nuvexport line 52.

Thanks for your help.

Is this problem also in R5D1? I tried to burn a DVD last night and it didn't work. I'm running R5D1 with the .20 upgrade.

I am unable to use nuvexport as it stands now. The quality is terrible. I have to say that everything else is working for me in R5e50. Hopefully, someone will come up with a solution (or explanation) for this little problem and then I will have the best mythtv install I have ever had! :)
