arista-transcode command-line not converting xvid on ubuntu 10.10 #47

I hope this is enough info to get someone with more python knowledge than me to look into this.

Using latest arista - 0.9.5 Using file: test.avi: RIFF (little-endian) data, AVI, 624 x 352, 23.98 fps, video: XviD, audio: MPEG-1 Layer 3 (stereo, 48000 Hz)

arista-gtk converts the file without error. arista-transcode throws an error when executing:

I also have this problem, but I don't think it's related to xvid: I'm unable to transcode OGG videos too.

This is a bit of a late response, but I think the problem is that Arista only seems to recognize absolute paths. The simple solution is to use an absolute path instead of a relative one. However, I think I have fixed this with bluelaguna/arista@4f7c05acf8799d1c11f0

This does help, thank you Akeem!
