[mythtv-users] Burning NUV files to DVD

Don't even bother doing anything.  You're making it way too complicated.
The NUV files produced by the PVR-250, 350 and probably the 150 and 500
(I just don't have one) ARE MPEG-2 formatted files.  Just make sure you
don't have a transcoder scheduled to convert it to something else.  I
usually copy it over to a Windows box to cut out commercials, but either
way, it's already ready to go to DVD authoring apps.

The problem with searching the archives on popular questions is that you
have to wade through all the posts saying "search the archives" before
you find the posts that have useful information. That was the problem I
experienced when trying to resolve the 0.17 daylight savings time issue.
I found lots of posts telling me to search the archives when that's what
I was already doing. It was very frustrating. It's like having an FAQ
where the answer to every question is "Look in the FAQ you dolt."

Stuff like this needs to get migrated in to some sort of real FAQ, even
if the FAQ contains nothing but links to the *useful* postings in the
archive. Then people can be told to look in the FAQ instead of the
archives, and they'll get better results when they look there.
