Don't even bother doing anything. You're making it way too complicated. The NUV files produced by the PVR-250, 350 and probably the 150 and 500 (I just don't have one) ARE MPEG-2 formatted files. Just make sure you don't have a transcoder scheduled to convert it to something else. I usually copy it over to a Windows box to cut out commercials, but either way, it's already ready to go to DVD authoring apps.

Please name any DVD authoring applications that will accept PVR-x50 MPEG2 files unmodified. I strongly suspect you haven't been doing this yourself, but in case you really are, I'd love to know what you are using. :)

The problem with searching the archives on popular questions is that you have to wade through all the posts saying "search the archives" before you find the posts that have useful information. That was the problem I experienced when trying to resolve the 0.17 daylight savings time issue. I found lots of posts telling me to search the archives when that's what I was already doing. It was very frustrating. It's like having an FAQ where the answer to every question is "Look in the FAQ you dolt."
Stuff like this needs to get migrated in to some sort of real FAQ, even if the FAQ contains nothing but links to the *useful* postings in the archive. Then people can be told to look in the FAQ instead of the archives, and they'll get better results when they look there.

I have just installed MythTV 0.18 on a FC3 box with a Hauppauge PVR350 card. I have been capturing video using the default encoding
of MPEG2-PS. There are a couple of DVD encoding options. My question is this, does switching to one of the DVD codecs allow me to copy files to DVD that are directly playable? If instad of a direct copy, I want to author a DVD with captured video, what format
the NUV utilities?should it be captured with before I try to convert it using one ofThanks,
