Jim, Someone else can correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that you will always need to use the NUV utilities to get the videos into a format that is playable in a dvd player. I don't believe that the PVR 350 itself correctly insert VOBU's where it should, and the utilities take care of that. The combination of nuvexport and mpeg2cut (and its associated utilities) work quite well. The whole process of converting a one-hour video from Myth to burning a DVD takes about 5 minutes for me. I believe that I use MPEG2-PS as the default encoding as well.
Hope that helps!
