I just wanted to say thanks for the pointer to gopdit - I've been having good luck using it to cut out commercials manually, passing to replex, and ultimately burning to DVD (without a fancy menu). Before now I always had a/v sync issues with the avidemux2 method of pulling apart the audio and video, then putting it back together again. So in a nutshell what I'm doing now is: 1) use nuvexport to export the sql/nuv version of the file 2) rename the .nuv to a .mpg 3) use gopdit to (manually) cut the commercials 4) pass to replex from within gopdit (pref. setting) 5) dvdauthor -o DVDNAME -f whatever.mpg (once per episode) 6) dvdauthor -o DVDNAME -T 7) growisofs -dvd-video -Z /dev/hdc DVDNAME Each episode winds up as it's own track on the DVD, no fancy menus. So now I'm going to look into seeing if I can get automatic commercial cutting working with gopdit so I don't have to do it manually (I imagine it will be more reliable too since setting the cutpoints seems to be very finicky -- I frequently had to start over because gopdit got confused). Then maybe I can work this into mythtvburn as a replacement for the avidemux2 method it's using now (it can still use avidemux2 to pull out the JPEGs though). If anyone else wants to beat me to either of these steps, feel free; it could take me a while... -- Dave Caplinger
