MythNetTV release 1

    I figured it was time for another release of MythNetTV, especially since I've fixed some bugs recently and rolled in code generously provided by George Nassas. New things in this release:

    • Initial work on transcoding smaller files to something else
    • Better error checking for MySQL configuration and accessibility
    • Fixed bug where MythNetTV was unhappy if there were no channels configured in the MySQL database
    • Found, and hopefully fixed, a bug where program dates were not always being tracked correctly. Also added a check to make sure this doesn't happen again
    • Added --markread, which lets you mark old shows as already downloaded


    The code has seen a fair bit of use now, so it should be fairly stable. Let me know if you find any problems...

    Hi,
    trying to get this working with DL.TV feed and no luck, I tried but the WMV and DIVX feeds but I get either

    Error: Unsure which to prefer from: [u'video/wmv', u'video/WMV'] for dl.tv 193 Aug 30, 2007: OpenDNS - What is it and how do you use it?
    or
    Error: Unsure which to prefer from: [u'video/x-divx'] for dl.tv 193 Aug 30, 2007: OpenDNS - What is it and how do you use it?

    I notice you have DL.TV which feed are you using?

    I'm using http://rssnewsapps.ziffdavis.com/audioblogs/DLTV.H.264.xml -- I'll test with yours and see what I can find.
