From inside vdr the directory names are human readable. If you want to 
see them with other applications you should use ds_X or the like and 
mux them as normal mpeg and name them however you want. Too see them 
then from inside vdr you can install the mplayer plugin. To burn them 
on dvd you can use dvdauthor, mjpegtools etc and master dvd's. These 
again can be played by mplayer plugin or dvd plugin. I don't really 
understand the problem you have.
