nuvexport to DVD does not work

I am running MythTV 0.16 on Slackware 10 and use nuvexport all the time to export
my nuv files to xvid avi files. Now I have a need to export to DVD mpeg-2, but
when I select 5-DVD from nuvexport, it sits and waits forever for transcode at 0
of 0 frames. I have the latest ffmpeg and transcode installed. I've seen several
references to this same issue on this list but no soultions. Does anyone know what
is going on and has anyone successfully used this before?

Re: nuvexport to DVD does not work [In reply to]

I had the same problem a while ago. I believed I solved it by
installing the mjpegtools package from apt. Use the command:
apt-get install mjpegtools

This installs a few libraries that transcode uses to encode mpeg-2
files. I have no idea why this is not a co-dependency of transcode or
even an optional install when installing transcode, but it is not.

The reason why transcode is failing is because it is calling
mpeg2enc(mpg2enc?) and since it can't find it, transcode stalls out.

I am having the same problem, and posted a similar question today. I've uninstalled and reinstalled both transcode and mjpegtools via apt (FC1, atrpms), but I'm still missing some libaries (namely, /usr/lib/transcode/export_mp2enc.so). Isn't export_mp2enc.so supposed to come with mjpegtools?

Here is the transcode error I'm getting when trying to nuvexport a show in VCD-level quality:

[transcode] warning : /usr/lib/transcode/export_mp2enc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[transcode] warning : (dl_loader.c) loading "/usr/lib/transcode/export_mp2enc.so" failed
[transcode] warning : (encoder.c) loading audio export module failed
[transcode] warning : failed to init export modules
[transcode] critical: plug-in initialization failed

I think export_mp2enc.so and export_mpeg2enc.so might be missing from the atrpms mjpegtools package. I replaced the atrpms transcode and mjpegtools packages with the ones from freshrpms, and export_mp2enc.so and export_mpeg2enc.so are now present under /usr/lib/transcode. Now I can do VCD-quality transcodes via nuvexport, no problem.

actually, it's supposed to come with transcode (it's the library
containing transcode's interface with mp2enc).

transcode-0.6.14-0.pre1.1.1.fc3.fr

granted, I'm running fc3, but it should be the same thing.

Re: nuvexport to DVD does not work [In reply to]

I thought this might be it as I checked the install of transcode and noticed
it was missing the export_mpeg2enc module. So I reinstalled another version
of transcode that had all modules, but I get the same results with nuvexport.
Also, the mpeg2enc program is in the path and runs on its own.
