[mythtv-users] Re: Archiving TV shows to DVD

[Cory Papenfuss]

 	Check the archives for some posts from me around early-mid 
December.  I used some avi "converter" (can't recall the name), 
then avidemux and replex, IIRC.  The trick was to bring it into avidemux 
as an encapsulated avi... then it could deal with changing A/V PTS values 
throughout the recording.  I don't recall the exact steps (haven't done it 
since), but it *did* work (abeit painfully).
