Then you do not need to extract audio from the file. I do the same for
my recording too. I finally burn my recordings on DVDs (of course
MPEG2 video and MP2 audio). This is the flow of what I do to get my
job done.

1) MythTV records the program.
2) I edit it in Mythfrontend to mark commercials or fix the commercial
markings created by mythcommflag
3) Then I run mythtranscode and mencoder to do the encoding for me.
The example of shell script is given below:

	for pass in 1:turbo 2
	do
	#frames=" -frames 300 "
	rm -f vidout
	rm -f audout
	nice -n 15 mythtranscode -i /myth/tv/1001_20060801202500.mpg
--profile auto --honorcutlist --fifodir . 1>/dev/null &
	sleep 5

	mencoder.working $frames -mc 0 -sws 2 -oac lavc -lavcopts
acodec=mp2:abitrate=128 -ovc lavc -lavcopts
vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vbitrate=3000:vrc_maxrate=3000:aspect=4/3:keyint=25:vmax_b_frames=2:vstrict=-1:scplx_mask=0.5:lmin=0.3:vpass=$pass
-of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd -demuxer rawvideo -audiofile ./audout
-audio-demuxer 20 -rawaudio rate=48000:channels=2 -rawvideo
fps=25:h=576:w=720 ./vidout -o "/myth/tmp/OutPut.mpg"

	done

	rm divx*.log
	rm audout
	rm vidout

That's it, I get a DVD compliant file in my /myth/tmp folder which I
can burn on a DVD.

If you need more help, do not hesitate to ask.
