I am sure there are many better, faster options but this is how I would do the job. 

1. Find the MythTV file and make a copy.
2. Edit the copy file to obtain the appropriate parts. I would probably use avidemux for this job so I might need to convert the file first, in which case I would use ffmpeg. Handbrake would probably do this just as well but I have never used it.
3. I would use Devede to burn the extracted file to DVD. The linux version did what I needed the last time I used it, but it took several hours. Of course it was a netbook I was using for the job.
