Mythtranscode hangs from userjob / errors from cli

[celpa.firl@…]

Some shows cause the mythtranscode process to error out / hang indefinetly.

FreeBSD mythJail 8.2-RELEASE-p6 FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE-p6 #0: Wed Apr 25 15:39:52 UTC 2012 mythtranscode version: [v0.25.2] www.mythtv.org Built from ports.

The script that fails is the following:

mythcommflag -f $VIDEODIR/$FILENAME mythutil --gencutlist --chanid $CHANID --starttime $STARTTIME -f $VIDEODIR/$FILENAME mythtranscode --verbose all --nodblog --loglevel debug --logpath /tmp -p def --honorcutlist --showprogress -i $VIDEODIR/$FILENAME -o $VIDEODIR/$FILENAME.tmp

I added --nodblog, and verbose logging to try to help, but no avail.

The purpose of this script is to remove the commercials in the file itself. This used to work in .24 ( didn't use mythutil to generate cutlist )

On some recordings, this process will hang, and stay hung ( mythtranscode ) for days.

I am forced to do a kill -s 9 to stop the process.

I can replicate the issue on a specific file, so if you want me to run any commands I can.

The logs attached are the error if I run the hung process commands manually on the command line.

/usr/local/bin/mythtranscode --nodblog --verbose all --passthrough --mpeg2 --loglevel debug --honorcutlist --showprogress -i /mnt/mythStorage/defaultstorage/1051_20121001210000.mpg -o /mnt/mythStorage/defaultstorage/1051_20121001210000.mpg.tmp --showprogress --logpath ./
