I'm testing my ipod and i am experiencing a problem with 2 FFmpegs running. I have tried it with plugplayer, 8player and mlplayer and i get the same results with all.

I have then ruled out the ipod in case i have accidently chosen two video files by making sure its turned off. I am pre-transcoding to make sure i get 100% file created for the file attributes etc for the ipod to work and i stil get two processes running.

I did wait till the pre-transcode finished and then tried to view it but it just restarted transcoding, 95%-100% cpu on FFmpegs, even killed my wifi link, all locked up until the transcode finished. I did a full reboot and re-test but the same results.

Both processes sit around 45 to 55%

I spotted someone else having this problem a while ago but no answer from that thread.
