MythTV doesn't support MPEG2 on the ConvertX. What you really want is a
tool that can capture from the ConvertX and output an MPEG2 program
stream suitable for feeding to dvdauthor, and I don't think such a thing
exists yet. Maybe you could take the output from "gorecord -format
mpeg2-dvd" and process it with ffmpeg, but I've not tried this. -Nathan
Unless I'm misunderstanding, Manuel is saying he has the card working
with MPEG2 and MythTV. He doesn't need help on getting the card to
yes, you got that right.
work. What he wants to know is the best way within MythTV to record
something from a VHS tape - i.e. something that doesn't have an epg
entry. I'm curious myself. I guess you could create a manual schedule,
but is there an easier way?
Right, I know that MythTV was made mainly to record scheduled programs.
It seems superb for that purpose although it is not my main interest
right now.
The page with Linux drivers of this card recommends MythTV, but what I
want to do, start and end a recording anytime I want with creating a
schedule, does not seem to be possible or maybe it is not obvious to me.
Since I could not make any recording with any other program besides
MythTV and gorecord tool that comes with the drivers, I wonder if
anybody knows how I can achieve what with MythTV. Or shall I submit a
feature request for MythTV?
