On some recent recordings, on trying to transcode to "top and tail" the recordings, mythtranscode would generate an error (232) and in the logfiles would have something like:
Code:
Deadlock detected
One buffer is full when the other is empty! Aborting

Doing a search resulted in this page here.

So from this, I created this script:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# to fix mythtranscode error 232 files

USAGE="Usage: `basename $0` [-v] [-h] -f filename"
VERBOSE=false
OUTPUTDEV="/dev/null"
TEST=false

ID=false
PARAMETER=" "

while getopts f:vh OPTION ; do
   case "$OPTION" in
       f)SOURCEFILE="$OPTARG" ;;
       v)VERBOSE=true ;;
       h)echo "$USAGE" ;
        exit 1
        ;;
   esac
done

#Now we have arguments and options, we now need to check
#what parameters have been passed and do we need to process them

#Very little preprocessing for input filename, should really put in some file name
#sanity checking

TEMPNAME=${SOURCEFILE%.mpg}

#Add the extensions and the temporary file name part
SOURCENAME=${TEMPNAME}.mpg
TEMPFILENAME=${TEMPNAME}.tmp.mpg

if [ "$VERBOSE" = true ] ; then
   echo "SOURCEfile = $SOURCENAME"
   echo "TEMPfile = $TEMPFILENAME"
fi


if [ ! -e "$SOURCENAME" ] ; then
   #Check for the existence of the input file
   echo "$SOURCENAME not found."
   exit 1
fi

ffmpeg -i "$SOURCENAME" -acodec copy -vcodec copy "$TEMPFILENAME"

if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
   #either ran out of space or file too damaged.
   echo "Demux failed!"
   exit 1
fi

 if [ "$VERBOSE" = true ] ; then
         mv -vf "$TEMPFILENAME" "$SOURCENAME"
else
         mv -f "$TEMPFILENAME" "$SOURCENAME"
fi

if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
      #check that move completed
      echo "File Moved failed!"
      exit 1
else
      echo "Move OK"
fi

mythtranscode --mpeg2 --buildindex --allkeys --showprogress --infile "$SOURCENAME"

if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
      #check that move completed
      echo "Build Index failed!"
      exit 1
else
      echo "Build Index OK"
fi

exit 0


The sequence I found useful is:
Remove cut points
Run the fix232 script
Edit the file, put the cut points back in
Transcode to remove the unwanted bits of the file
Transcode again, as the previous transcode does not seem to rebuild the frame index correctly.

The script is invoked by fix232.sh -f <filename> for example
/home/mythtv/bin/fix232 -f 1002_20100626190000.mpg

Script is is to be used at owners risk, no responsibility for any data loss is accepted.
