For cutting I use vdr itself.

The recordings of vdr are in a sort of mpeg2 called mpeg2 transport stream.
You can convert them fast in normal mpeg2 with wine and pva strumento.
(a bit OT here?)
Till now there is no problem. If you want to convert it to sort of divx
mplayer/mencoder is your friend and you are fine, if you want to make a svcd
out of it it can cause some serious headache to you (I have some Gigs of
music videos here and ahve not found a way to handle this nice.) The biggest
problem is to recognze what kind of stuff the video is and use the right
filter. I have two concerts here that really are looking screwed up after
encoding with mpeg2enc. I have tried to get TMPEG and other win encoder with
wine to run but was not successfull so far. (dvd2avi is working, tmpeg starts
too, but it seems avisynth is not working properly I get allways 10 seconds
== 250 frames black video out of tmpg.
If andrew is reading here: The main problems are stroboskops and clouds (nebel
?) and the like.

That is a problem of XawTV I don't know if there exist a deinterlacer for
XawTV. If mplayer could handle this v4l device I would have a solution ;)
