It depends on your encoding settings.
The standard software encoders use NuppelVideo, which is (I THINK) MPEG-4 based.
If you're using a DVB capture card, the .nuv files will be MPEG-2 transport
streams (and file should be able to identify them.)
Same for an ATSC capture card (pcHDTV HD-2000).
If you're using an MPEG-2 encoder (Hauppauge PVR-x50, Avermedia M179, Yuan
MPG600), they'll be MPEG-2 program streams.
