dvdauthor does not accept hauppauge streams

Hauppauge streams can be used directly when you want to convert to other formats.
However, if you want to create a dvd with dvdauthor you might get the following errors:


DVDAuthor::dvdauthor, version 0.7.2.
Build options: gnugetopt graphicsmagick iconv freetype fribidi
Send bug reports to <dvdauthor-users@lists.sourceforge.net>

INFO: default video format is PAL

To fix this you need to demux and mux (remultiplex) the file. This will add the needed NAV packets in the file


sudo zypper in mjpegtools ProjectX

projectx.sh -demux original.mpg -name fixed
mplex -f 8 -o fixed.mpg fixed.m2v fixed.mp2

This will create a fixed.mpg file that you now can use with all tools
