I have created two potentially useful scripts for PVR-xxx owners for extracting MythTV-recorded .nuv files and re-muxing them to DVD-compliabnt video.
NOTE: this script will *NOT* work for MythTV recordings not created by a hardware MPEG-2 recorder. There are scripts that already exist for that. Usage: Use 'dumprecorded.pl' to get a list of current MythTV recordings, and then pass the nuv filename to 'makempg.sh' to create a DVD-compliant MPEG-2 file. NOTE: dumprecorded.pl will have to be edited to use your MySQL database settings. See comments within the file. ./makempg.sh myfile.nuv outfile.mpg 'makempg.sh' needs ProjectX as well as mplex. On my system, /usr/local/bin/projectx is a shell script: --- cut here --- #!/bin/sh java -jar /home/mfrisch/temp/ProjectX_Source_0.90.2/ProjectX.jar $* --- cut here --- After outfile.mpg is created, it's easy to create a DVD image using: mkdir dvd dvdauthor -o dvd outfile.mpg dvdauthor -o dvd -T mkisofs -dvd-video -o myiso.iso dvd/ rm -rf dvd This procedure will put one recording per DVD and not bother with chapters, a menu, and the other frills that I don't need. Hope this might be useful to somebody. Feedback, modifications, etc are appreciated. Thanks to Steve Adeff et al. for their assistance.
