Scripts for Mythtv

rectovid.py

Supports transcoding of a recording using HandBrakeCLI or cutting and merging a recording using mkvmerge. The resulting file is moved to a MythTv video storage group. This script can be set as a user job and can then be triggered from MythFrontend on a specific recording.

usage: rectovid.py [-h] [-f REC_FILE] [-d REC_DIR] [-p REC_PATH] [-j JOB_ID] [-c CFG_FILE] [-m MODE] [--preset PRESET]
                [--presetfile PRESET_FILE] [--timeout TIMEOUT] [-l LOG_FILE] [--loglevel LOG_LEVEL]
