Hi,

I must say that singing and dancing was not what I was doing when
setting that up. How do you get a 800x400 display on to a PVR-350 TV
output?

For 'net easy to set up' read 'I have been bashing my head repeatibly
against a wall whitch has a nail sticking out'.  I.e. I have not got
it working.  I am using a nova- cardt.

I'm guessing you want a Linux solution, but here's a Windows one just
in case. I've only started playing with this this week but it appears
that a pretty easy solution would be to:

1) Copy recording to Windows machine
2) Use ProjectX on Windows to edit recording and transcode to .mp2  .mpv.
3) Use a DVD author such as DVD Styler  import these 2 asset file to
make your DVD.

However, I think this all relies on the fact that I'm recording wit
DVB-T cards so I've already got MPEG2 to start with. In your case
you'd have to transcode the files out of MPEG4. You could do that with
nuvexport as step 0). Or you could use something like TMPGEnc or
IMTooMPEG (neither are free and not sure how much they like the MythTV
transcoded format). I think I've played with one of them and it does
work from memory.

HTH,
Phill

google for any2vob - a piece of software that will transcode anything 
(the any part) to a vob file suitable for putting on a dvd. Of course
with any such solution you need a lot of dependencies as there is a lot
of situations to be taken into account.

any2vob will even make an ac3 5.1 soundtrack for you if desired. [1]

The one thing it doesn't do is make the menus and the iso - you have to
find another solution for that, but there are a couple of ok front ends
for dvdauthor (dvdstyler is my preference).

The other thing it doesn't do is have a myth interface, you will need to log in 
over ssh to do it.

[1] of course its not true 5.1 in that the front and back speakers have
the same sound, but at least sound comes out all 6 speakers. I think the
algorithm is something like:

Stereo Left becomes Front Left and Rear Left
Ditto for Right
Combine Left  Right to make Centre
Combine Left  Right and filter out above 150Hz to make Low Frequency
channel
