Very similar for me, except for the authoring.
1. Mark Commercials in Myth
2. Use the MPEG2->MPEG2 option of nuvexport.
3. Use DVDauthor to create Video TS and Audio TS
4. Then on windows transfer from the linux machine. I then use Nero to
burn the disc.

I posted this elsewhere, but here's the procedure that I use.
Basically, use nuvexport, but use the MPEG->MPEG option, not the DVD
option.
1. Mark your commercials in Myth
2. Use the MPEG2->MPEG2 option of nuvexport. For me, this step usually
takes
about 5-10 mins on my computer for a 30 minute show. Might take even
less time for you. Certainly far far less than the 12 hours you're
currently experiencing for transcoding.
3. Prepare a video DVD iso using the mpg2 file exported from step 3. I
use DVDStyler. Another app is Q DVD Author.
4. Burn the iso to dvd. I use k3b for this.
HTH,
Lane
