I'm trying to get the encode to iPod option to work, and it's giving me a nuvexport error. Relevant section from mythbackend.log is below: Code: 2008-07-11 22:34:46.841 JobQueue: Started "Encode for iPod" for "Jeopardy!" recorded from channel 1008 at Fri Jul 11 19:30:00 2008 Starting nuvexport...

A search revealed this post (#6) which suggests that adding the following lines to /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend solves the problem. Code: TERM=vt100
export TERM These instructions are for Ubuntu. Is it likely that this will fix my problem in KnoppMyth as well? |

I tried adding Code: TERM=vt100 to my /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend, and it didn't fix nuvexport for me. For what it's worth. Did anyone ever figure out how to fix it?
export TERM |

Nope. I added it as well, and it didn't work for me either. |

There is a second fix described about three messages past the one linked to above, which lists a patch to apply to shared_utils.pm. Anyone tried that? |

I don't see the second fix in that topic... am I missing it? |

I'm not sure I followed the directions properly. I created a file in webmin called termcap.patch and saved it to /usr/local/share/nuvexport from a terminal I changed to that directory and typed the command patch -p0 <termcap.patch. It ran but says the following Quote: patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line Hunk #2 succeeded at 105 with fuzz 1 (offset 5 lines). My mythbackend.log was getting the same error that you have been getting.

Great! Thanks for this I think iPod converter is working now - I was just about to post about this and fortunately found this post. One question - what is nuvexport? Because I thought it was something to do with .nuv files, something mine are not encoded as (.mpg) I was about to ignore this post but good job I had not! One other thing - I did as s1148625 suggested but got the error: Code: patching file nuv_export/shared_utils.pm Hunk #1 FAILED at 50. Hunk #2 FAILED at 100. 2 out of 2 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file nuv_export/shared_utils.pm.rej So I copied the code from the original patch website and applied again and it worked fine: Code: patching file nuv_export/shared_utils.pm
Hunk #2 succeeded at 105 (offset 5 lines). Not sure why it didn't work the first time but my recommendation is that if you get an error just try copying in the patch again (from the other source if necessary). Thanks again for this, Mythman |

It's a somewhat misnamed utility that exports recordings from your MythTV database to various other formats, possibly transcoding them in the process. The name dates back to a time when MythTV used the NUV format exclusively(?). |

Thanks for that tjc. Sorry is this is off topic, but does anyone know how to change the bitrate settings and the like as it seems to reencode at over 1.5MB a minute which I'm finding is a bit excessive for my little portable screen. (I've taken a look at /usr/bin/localmyth2ipod but can't find any bitrate or size settings. Thanks, Mythman |

I swapped out the video card that was causing problems. I must be missing something in the steps above because I keep getting the same result as before. What am I missing........?

Before you go back to R5F27 you might try getting the SVN ffmpeg and building it as described in this post: http://knoppmyth.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=18547 It is actually fairly painless. Look for the post by cliffsjunk on Fri Aug 22, 2008 9:34 am. It is currently the second from the end. |
