pvr-250 right?  I don't think you want the dvb stuff then.  I was referring
to this script:

---------------
#!/bin/sh 

mkfifo aud0 
mkfifo vid0 
mkfifo dvdmpg 

mpeg2desc -a0 < $1 > aud0 & 
mpeg2desc -v0 < $1 > vid0 & 
mplex -f 8 -V -o dvdmpg aud0 vid0 & 
dvdauthor -o $2 -f dvdmpg 
dvdauthor -o $2 -T 

rm aud0 
rm vid0 
rm dvdmpg
----------------

Pass it the .nuv file and a name for the new dvd project.  You should end up
with a directory which you can mkisofs into a ISO then burn it.  (Or are
people somehow bypassing the mkisofs step to burn?  lemme know if so...)
