If you want the SD variant in your recordings, adapt it like this:

#!/usr/bin/bash
mv ${1}.mpg ${1}HD.mpg
exec nice -n 20 mythffmpeg -i ${1}HD.mpg -target ntsc-dvd ${1}.mpg

And then if you want to throw away the SD variant and put the HD back
in place:

#!/usr/bin/bash
rm ${1}.mpg
mv ${1}HD.mpg ${1}.mpg
