MythTV: optional dependencies for MythArchive

The MythArchive plugin for MythTV can make DVDs from TV recordings. I have used it for several years with the optional java-based ProjectX as a robust demultiplexer and m2vrequantiser as a shrink-to-fit utility. It seems that m2vrequantiser is available as a package from rpmfusion, but that package is based on source code from 2003. I do not know how much it is used but I have heard of problems with it. I use use a version based on later code released by the same company which is available here: https://launchpad.net/m2vrequantiser/ The download includes a README.txt, and in my experience it 'just works.' I believe that, if rpmfusion is to offer a package, it should be based on this one. I am not sure about redistributing ProjectX; I understand that Ubuntu do so, but their version is at present too old to work properly with MythArchive. The most recent GNU tarball is available as a download from the foot of this page: http://project-x.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/project-x/Project-X/ Build with build.sh, and I run the job with 'ionice -c3 java -jar ProjectX.jar <options>' John P
