When I'm making DVD's from nuv files I use ProjectX (http://www.doom9.org/index.html?/DigiTV/projectx-fullguide.htm, check the Doom9 download page for the program, under Digital TV section - it's Java based). It's a program for processing mpeg2 streams that does a brilliant job with .nuv files. It will take a mpeg2 PS/TS and output the individual streams (video, audio, subtitles etc). So I normally run it on the .nuv files and it gives me .mpa and .m2v files which most dvd authoring programs can handle. If the program expects .mpg files you can just re-multiplex the video and audio with something like mplex. The other brilliant thing ProjectX does is sort out any timing issues between the streams caused by corrupt blocks so you end up with video/audio streams that are perfectly in sync and the correct length.
