I realize that it's a bit premature, but might I suggest two types
of DVD burning: One that actually authors a standards-compliant DVD
(difficult), and one that simply exports the .nuv and an .sql stub file
onto a DVD that's easily played from within mythtv (easier). I generally
use nuvexport in that mode (NUV/SQL) to export/import recorded shows when
I'm out of disk space. Don't lose anything in the database that way.
Just a though...
