Doesn't look right to me. In the log above it looks like it never got past 1%. 
You should be seeing the % value increasing something like this:

1% demuxing A/V PES file 1170_20050819193000_20050819200000.nuv
2% demuxing A/V PES file 1170_20050819193000_20050819200000.nuv
3% demuxing A/V PES file 1170_20050819193000_20050819200000.nuv
4% demuxing A/V PES file 1170_20050819193000_20050819200000.nuv

I just timed creating a DVD with a single 1.5Gb file on it. The Demuxing part 
just
took less than 2 mins to complete with 9 cutpoints on my system! The complete
DVD not including the burning took less than 8 mins total. Even a 733MHz cpu
shouldn't be taking 7 hours!

The mythburn scripts will never transcode anything by the way they assume the 
files 
you give it are already MPEG2 and have DVD compliant resolutions etc.
