how do people cut commercials from recordings done by a PVR-250 or 350?
I was able to make a dvd out of some shows using mythburn.
now that I had that working I wanted to go the next step and make a cut list, transcode and then burn the file.
before transcoding, I was able to make a dvd with this same file.
I used the RTjpeg codec.
I have also tried the Mpeg-4 codec and it fails as well.
here is my log file

Code:
myth_host burn # cat mythburn.log
MythBurn Script is running as user mythtv
Video format = ntsc
Background image = /mythtv/backup/burn/mythburn/images/backgrounds/plasma-tomato.png
Background music = /mythtv/backup/burn/mythburn/music/funky1.mp2
Make ISO image = yes
Burn to DVD-R = no
Delete VIDEO_TS = yes
Highlight image = footprint.png
Animated thumbnails = no
Chapter Submenus = no
Recode to AC3 = yes

You shouldn't transcode before burning. Just create the cutlist and Mythburn will automatically remove the commercials for you.

thank you
I have a problem, my recordings are 640X480 and I was using transcode to make them 720X480 because I was told that mythburn only works with 720X480.
I tried a dvd based on 640X480 resolution and people look squashed on the TV when I play the DVD, or I see a black bar on the right of the tv screen(depends on the DVD player)

how can I make the 640X480 shows work?

Please don't post the same question on different threads on the forum.

Change your recording settings to use a DVD compatible recording size 720x480 or 352x480 etc.

I have over 550 gigs of recordings at 640 resolution, is there really nothing at all I can do?
perhaps a manual way to add black bars on either side of the 640 to fill out the frame to 720?
thank you for your time and have a good day

Either way you will need to re-encode the recordings to the new size/format. have a look at ffmpeg on google - this may help you.

if I re-encode the video, will that prevent it from working with the mythburn script?

jakep_82 indicated you should not transcode before burning.

thanks

I was just referring to cutting commercials. Mythburn will cut the commercials for you, but I don't know about transcoding. I record at 720x480 so I've never had to transcode before.
