Have you tried the mythburn scripts. They follow more or less 
exactly the same process you outlined above automatically.
You end up with a DVD with menus and all.

Thanks to Martin Bene installation is now very easy as long as you have
all the dependencies and works OK with both TS and PS recordings.

Currently you need to use MythWeb to select recordings and options but
a native mythplugin is on its way.  

url for scripts and how to install available here (very last message):

Martin is currently asking for idea's on how to improve the scripts over
on the Dev list. So now is the time to get your wish list in :-)
