[vdr] Re: dvd burn plugin for NTSC (scrolling menu)

[Peace Monk <peace.monk@gmail.com>]

I have been struggling with the same problem for a while.  I tried
both vdrsync -m (tcmplex) and vdrconvert (ProjectX) and both had bad
sync issues.  When I used tmpeg on windows with the demuxed files from
vdrsync, the output mpeg was flawless.  So, the problem lies somewhere
in the muxing process in linux.

Would you be kind enough to send me a copy of vdr2dvd.sh and other
scripts you modified to get this to work?  Hey, are you cym from dvbn?
