Try using nuvexport (https://svn.forevermore.net/nuvexport) to export to mpeg-2 for burning onto DVD. It has a bunch of dependencies but once it's working it's super convenient.

thanks don. I use nuvexport for making avis on the backend all the time. What I would like is to use it on another machine other than the backend.

I tried nuvexport on a separate, networked machine - made a symlink to the mythtv store directory from my local /mnt/store and nuvexport started up fine and found the remote mythtv recordings.
But, ffmpeg failed when trying to export. The error:

ffmpeg had critical errors:
pipe:: Error while opening file

I tried the --debug option. Didn't see anything that was a problem. Could mythtranscode be at fault? Perhaps it's an timing issue? In the script, mythtranscode is forked off (and nuvexport does say it's waiting for mythtranscode to set up the files. It states this twice before continuing) and then ffmpeg starts and ends abruptly.

Anyone know what I can do?

What do most people do when they want to make a DVD from a show?

I don't want anything fancy, and I'm not archiving. I just have a show (PVR 250 mpeg2) that I want to make a playable DVD out of (so that it can be burned, placed into a commercial DVD player, push play and viola).

I searched the archives, but most discuss fancy edits and archiving. I have yet to update my old mythtv install so I don't have the fancy mythtv tools. Just need something in linux that'll work.

thanks,

brad
