I have often read that the content of the .nuv files that mythtv records from my DVB-T card, is already an mpeg2 file. However, DVDstyler (which I am using to make the DVD iso image) does not accept the file, if I just rename it to .mpg. I get the following errors...

"
mmm, this file does not start with a pack, offset: 0
use the desperate_mode switch as the first option -X to search for a header in the whole file! if you want to force the operation. May yield to an endless loop if no valid header is found!
warning: couldn't find any valid system header. I'm continuing anyway
mpeg file /mnt/workspace/video/1001_20050727213000_20050727220000.mpg can not be demultiplexed (neither System nor Program stream)
"


So, what is a quick and dirty way to make it acceptable? I know I can use nuvexport, but it does a conversion of bitrates etc, even when you choose DVD output, and works at about 25 frames a second on my computer (about real time). I was hoping to not have to go through this lengthy step.

Is there a utility to supply the header that seems to be missing (according to the error) without having to reprocess the whole file?
