As I have a DVD-writer testing with UDF-packet-writing I'm also
interested in recording DVD. If the version 1.2 of VDR comes up, maybe
someone can write a recording-plugin which directly records in
VOB-format with IFO- and BUP-files instead of propretary MPEG-PES with
index.vdr (if I understood well the DVD-specs, IFO-files are the
index-files of VOB (like index.vdr in VDR) and BUP-files are backups of
IFOs. So we could keep the main-file/index-file-structure and use the
corresponding formats for VOB and IFO).
