To test the patch, you'll need to apply the patch to the MythTV
sourcecode and then compile MythTV. Luckily you can do this by
rebuilding the packages from the Mythbuntu autobuilds so you don't
need to do a new MythTV installation to test the patch.

You'll need to do something like the following:

Make sure you have the current version of mythtv from mythbuntu
autobuilds installed:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade

Install the tools needed to build source packages:
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential

Create a temporary directory for your build:
$ mkdir mythtv_temp
$ cd mythtv_temp

Download the source packages of the current Mythbuntu autobuild
version of Mythtv (the one which is already installed at this point):
$ sudo apt-get source mythtv

Download the patch:
$ wget http://code.mythtv.org/trac/raw-attachment/ticket/9549/0001-Make-MPEG2fixup-ProcessVideo-return-int.patch


Apply the patch
$ cd mythtv*/
$ sudo patch -p1 < ../0001-Make-MPEG2fixup-ProcessVideo-return-int.patch

Build the MythTV packages from your modified source:
$ cd ..
$ sudo apt-get -b source mythtv

Once done, you'll have a number of *.deb packages in the current
directory. Install the modified package:
$ sudo dpkg -i ${FILENAME}
(I guess the patched mythtranscode files ends up in the package called
"mythtv-transcode-utils")

...I (or someone else if they're bored) should probably do a generic
tutorial and add it to the wiki. Similar approaches must be possible
on systems based on Fedora etc.

Best regards
Kenni
