I thought in the original posting I had said: I use nuvexport-dvd to go from nupple to mpeg2 which uses mythtranscode and ffmpeg.

If I could only get the new system working that would change as I have a PVR 500 and an HD3000 card in the new system. > ALL of those would provide more detailed information tna "mythtv ... > set bit rate to 9 Mb/s".
