I run mythbuntu weekly builds, and have the latest 2.10 firmware on my ps3.
I always get the corrupted data. Just now I figured I should check what type
of data my recordings have with mplayer, this is what I came up with (a few
different types, but very little differences):

VIDEO MPEG2(pid=1019) AUDIO A52(pid=1017) NO SUBS (yet)!  PROGRAM N. 1
VIDEO:  MPEG2  720x576  (aspect 3)  25.000 fps  15000.0 kbps (1875.0kbyte/s)

// another aspect, but same size =O
VIDEO MPEG2(pid=1019) AUDIO A52(pid=1017) NO SUBS (yet)!  PROGRAM N. 1
VIDEO:  MPEG2  720x576  (aspect 2)  25.000 fps  15000.0 kbps (1875.0kbyte/s)

// this has another audio codec
VIDEO MPEG2(pid=1019) AUDIO MPA(pid=1018) NO SUBS (yet)!  PROGRAM N. 1
VIDEO:  MPEG2  720x576  (aspect 3)  25.000 fps  15000.0 kbps (1875.0kbyte/s)

// this has another size...
VIDEO MPEG2(pid=8149) AUDIO MPA(pid=8148) NO SUBS (yet)!  PROGRAM N. 1
VIDEO:  MPEG2  704x576  (aspect 2)  25.000 fps  15000.0 kbps (1875.0kbyte/s)

I don't know if I have tried 'em all, size it's hard for me to connect
filename "1001_20080121190000.mpg" to a certain recording seen from the ps3,
but I have tried a bunch (I think all), and they all report corrupted data.
