So, there is the built in software transcoder in myth, and you can use
that to transcode to mpeg4. Once you do that, the files are named still
with extension .nuv. Can you open and play those in windows media
player (or any other player for windows like ati fileplayer for
example)?
Yes you can do that. But after transcode the file has a "real" .nuv "header"/envelope, so you need the dsmyth filter (dsmyth.sf.net) to be able of using the .nuv file on Windows. In addition you need a MPEG4 codec on your Windows PC.
When you have transcoded the file to MPEG4, you can replace the header with the nuv2avi application (on Linux!), which without recoding creates an MPEG4 AVI file from the nuv file. Note that time stamps in the nuv file are lost, so you might get audio sync problems with the resulting AVI file, especially if you have the recording from a noisy source.
The dsmyth filter and nuvexport to DIVX format are methods that handle the time stamps correctly in my experience.
