[mythtv-users] PVR-x50 to DVD in realtime?

[papenfuss at juneau.me.vt.edu]

	Although I hate to say definately "no," to anything, I believe the 
answer is a definative "NO."  Although the stream can be DVD compliant WRT 
bitrate/resolution/audio, etc a DVD has a very rigid file structure.  In 
addition to the mpeg streams, there are header files (.IFO's) that describe the 
disk offsets, menus, etc, etc, which I don't think could be done on the fly.  
Even with the DVD+RW format, I don't think think it could be mastered and 
written in real time.

	I would think that the ability to *post-process* and master them later 
wouldn't be that hard... probably soon to come to mythtv.
