AAAAARGGGHH - any help would be mucho appreciated here:

Right, Im trying to convert Digital TV broadcast MPG into a format that even Windows Media player can understand, and cut out adverts along the way:

Ive "demux"ed the MPG D-TV streams and this results in an editable MPV file - I can then paste and cut etc...

but how do I then reconvert mpv to mpg???

Also are DVDs MPV??

Cheers guys!!

If you ae going to be working with a lot of movie files i'd recommend having these;

TMPGEnc (encoding dvd quality MPEG2), Goldwave (for sound), FlaskMPEG and TMPGEnc dvd author (lets you author and create some spiffing menus).

Ah ha!

Whilst flicking through my various software i think i may have found you a solution. You should be able to use FlaskMPEG to convert the mpv to an AVI, then use TMPEGEnc to convert to MPEG.

The AVI will be quite large though, make sure youve got some reasonable HDD space. About 1.5 hours takes up about 40gb(ish).

Ok so this program is splitting .mpg files into associated .mpa and .mpv files... if burnt to DVD would they be played concurrently?

Well sort of.

MPV
MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 video elemantary stream(no audio). Also called M1V for MPEG-1 video and M2V for MPEG-2 video.

Now that i think on it i think you can use TMPGEnc to encode to mpg.

I'll check.

EDIT:Unfortunately it cant

DVD's are MPEG2, if you could change the MPV to AVI then you are in with a fighting chance.
