Not sure if it was pointed out already, but this works for me on FC4:

  Subject: [mythtv-users] DVD Burning


  I've been trying to archive my shows to DVD using a script I found.

  Here's the script:

  !/bin/sh
  mkfifo aud0
  mkfifo vid0
  mkfifo dvdmpg

  mpeg2desc -a0 < $1 > aud0 &
  mpeg2desc -v0 < $1 > vid0 & 
  mplex -f 8 -V -o dvdmpg aud0 vid0 &
  dvdauthor -o $2 -f dvdmpg
  dvdauthor -o $2 -T

  rm aud0
  rm vid0

  When I use it I do "dvdwrite /video/[name of video] DVD" and it spits out a directory named DVD.  Then I do "growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -dvd-video DVD" and it makes a DVD.  When I play the DVD in my stand alone DVD player the fideo is about 2/3 the size of the screen ( i.e. it's all the way over to the left of the screen and the rest is black).  I think I'm recording in 720x480 so shouldn't this work?  I tried installing mythburn (the web program for burning) and when I run it it deletes all of my videos so I have it set up wrong.  Is there any howto explaining how to install it and make it work well?  Also when I run ProjectX I get "Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from /home/mfrisch/temp/ProjectX_Source_0.90.2/ProjectX.jar".  I think I remember reading in another thread that I have the wrong JRE installed, is that right?  And if so how do I fix it?  I'm running FC4 with mythtv 0.18.1.  Thanks in advance for any and all help.
