Anybody know what I should be doing to get these recordings to work? The built in DVD encoder in Toast is hopeless (and takes a long time), whereas I *assume* I already have a pre-encoded version of the recordings for DVDSP.

Rod!

The digital video streams recorded off air are MPEG transport streams, which are different to the MPEG formats used on DVD's etc. You need to export the data to turn it into an MPEG Program stream. Even then there are no guarantees. Consult the FAQ:

Just to make it better, some digital video tuners (not necessarily the EyeTV) will create corrupt MPEG transport streams if there's interference in the signal. Apparently you only find this out halfway through watching the show you recorded to DVD!

Have fun,
