[mythtv-users] Breaking up DVD mpg files into chapters

This is slightly OT, but hopefully not too far OT.

I've created an MPG file for DVD burning using nuvexport. I'd like to
break that MPG file into several separate chapter files before authoring
it to DVD. Is there any tool that will do this easily?

I realize one option would be to specify the chapters by time offset
within the MPG, but this seems like a harder approach, and also I'm not
sure how I would get the desired time offsets precisely. The time
position information displayed on the screen with, e.g., mplayer, doesn't
seem to always match up with other tools.

Basically, I'm looking for a graphical tool that would let me put a bunch
of "breakpoints" in the MPG file and then split it up accordingly with no
re-encoding.
