I have two backends, a PVR-250 recording mpeg-ps files and a firewire box
recording mpeg-ts. My Hauppage MVP works very well on the mpeg-ps files
but will not play mpeg-ts files.
I've been playing with, and appear to be successful, using mencoder to create
mpeg-ps files from the ts files that will play on the MVP. In fact, I
just converted
and watched about two hours of "Hot Rocks" on the science channel, a quite
excellent series from your side of the pond.
Conversion of the ts files to ps files using the "copy" codec is quite
fast....about
700 fps on a 2.8G intel, but a little more susceptable to noise. Using the
mpeg2video codec, conversion is about 70 fps. In either case, the sound must be
encoded from it's ac3 format to mpeg 1 layer 2 for the MVP to play.
Hope this helps,
Barry

Can you post your mencoder/mplayer commands that you use ?
Thanks
