Aha, so, battling around with this I've made "some" progress. I'd had advice (and seent his before, to be honest) that the .nuv files are infact just MPEG2 streams from DVB-T cards, but this clearly wasn't the case for me as simply renaming them and shifting them onto a windows box wasn't working.... Windows Media Player didn't like the files at all, and PowerDVD played them but they appeared highly corrupt.
Surfing around, I found that using mencoder works a treat :- mencoder -of mpeg -ovc copy -oac copy -o output.mpg <whatever.nuv> ...which is strange, because I've purposely told it to just do a straight stream copy... but the resulting file is spot on (WMP opens, but just shows a blank screen - however PowerDVD is perfectly happy and plays the video fine). So, that's all good, but it's hardly integrated into myth. So I head for the nuvexport --mencoder option. However this seems to be reliant on "lvemux"... >Using mencoder for exporting. >What would you like to do? > > 1. Export to XviD (using mencoder) > 2. MPEG2->MPEG2 cut only (disabled) > 3.

I've run it manually without any need for it, is there some way I can hack nuvexport so it just does the straight copy process on the MPEG2 streams, and hence does away with the need for lvemux? My perl experience is non-existent :D but I really don't want to be matching up those horrible .nuv filenames to my programmes manually. Cheers guys - almost there with this one, it seems...
