Hi All,
I tend to run the pacman updates regularily, and occasionally something goes a bit wrong. Generally, its easy enough to diagnose, or rollback.
Recently the mythtv package has been updated, and to get transcode to work, it was noted that you needed to upgrade ffmpeg to ffmpeg-svn.

This seems to have fixed the problem in transcode, but now when I get to the mplex part of creating an iso (from recordings) it fails.

Does anyone know if the mythtv or ffmpeg-svn is to blame? Or is there something else that needs to be updated?

Hi Nathan,
Code: Unable to read from /myth/tmp/work/temp.m2v
suggests a file permission problem. I would look at ownership of all the directories below /myth/tmp. Execute "ls -lR /myth/tmp" and post the output.
Mike
P.S. Hope you have kids: Archiving Thomas the Tank would be pretty sad otherwise

I have an anorak I save especially for my thomas the tank marathons
Yes, actually, 2xkids... means that having what ever show is the flavour of the day at your fingertips is a big winner with myth. Something i call the KAF (as opposed to the WAF, which is equally, if not more relevant, but certainly directly related to the KAF).
I'll have a look into the folder permissions, but i'm sure I looked at it and they were all owned by mythtv. The archive procedure created all the chapters and outputs in the work folder, just when it tried to merge them, it created a zero-length temp.m2v file, and barfed. Cant help but think theres something wrong in binary land.
I might try running the command manually and see if theres anymore debug info Code: mplex -f 8 -v 0 -o '/myth/tmp/work/temp.mpg' '/myth/tmp/work/temp.m2v' '/usr/share/mythtv/mytharchive/music/silence.ac3'
Cheers,
Nathan

I'm having the same issue in the same place as nmcaullay. My permissions are:
Code: [mythtv@mythbox-mbe ~]$ ls -l /myth/md0/archive/work/temp.m2v -rw-rw-rw- 1 mythtv mythtv 0 2009-08-18 17:53 /myth/md0/archive/work/temp.m2v I see the zero byte file. Mythburn.log doesn't say much. It looks like it trys to write to temp.m2v and then fails: Code: Encoding Menu Page 1 using aspect ratio '16:9' INFO: [mpeg2enc] SETTING EXTENDED MMX for MOTION!

Nathan,
Did you end up running the mplex line manually?

I am having the same issue. Where can I find the log file that is generated by mytharchive? What ever generates the 'temp.m2v' file is the problem as the file is a 0 length file. I would guess that it is ffmpeg but for some reason I didn't have all of the ffmpeg library files so mytharchive would terminate earlier during mytharchive. So after I installed ffmpeg-svn things went a little further in the process but terminated at the same place that you listed.
