Why does it save video in this format and not in MPEG-2 video

If you're using a hardware encoder cars it IS mpeg2 not a
nupplevideo.
Why Myth format is so large and why can't it be saved in raw
MPEG-2 video
stream for later playback?
You should REALLY search the mailing lists... This topic has
been covered to death.
Let's make it clearer, for instance, I use WinTV-PVR-150, it has
MPEG-2 encoder, right? So why files stored on hard disk are still in
NuppelVideo format?
They're not. They have a .nuv extension, but are in mpeg-2 format. Try
working with them as mpeg-2 files and you won't have a problem.
If you want proof, try file:
$ file 1018_20050115160000_20050115170000.nuv
1018_20050115160000_20050115170000.nuv: MPEG system stream data
This isn't Windows. File extensions mean nothing.
Some broken operating systems decided to use file extensions as a way of
identifying file types because they couldn't figure out how to do it
right. *nix doesn't suffer from this inherent limitation of those other
OS's.
