No - I'm leaving them as-is. But then I'd have though that they must be
MPEG2 already for the PVR350 to be able to output them through its
hardware decoder?

Are you transcoding your DVB recordings?

Yes - I'll try different codecs (if I can) - I do have a MPEG2 codec

MythTV box the PVR350 can play the Nexus-S recordings perfectly so it
must be a "funny" MPEG2 format - that the PVR350 likes but whatever
MPEG2 codec I'm using doesn't like. I'll checkout different codecs to
see if one works.

Try using a DVD player application. I found that even with the right codec
the picture was squished (tall and narrow). I prefer PowerDVD. Once you
install the package you will have the codec.

Subject: [mythtv-users] OT - Codec for NEXUS DVB MPEG
I'd say this is only a small bit off topic - its not a MythTV issue.
When I record programmes on a Nexus-S DVB card they play perfectly through
the PVR350 output - so it looks like the PVR likes the MPEG2 (?) that the
Nexus-S provides.
But I cannot play the files through Windows Media Player and MythWeb (using
MythTV filters and myth:// URLs in MythWeb) - Windows Media player complains
about no codec to play back the files with. Recordings make with the PVR350
play back perfectly in Media Player so it looks like there is a difference
in the file formats from each card.
Does anyone know of a Codec for Windows that will playback Nexus-S DVB MPEG
files?
Thanks,
Derek
