You can try this:
Export a show using nuvexport. Manually edit the SQL to reflect your video files. Use nuvexport to import the show back in... It may or may not work... Good luck.

I doubt this will work, but you could try it:

mv file.dv /myth/tv/1001_20050101010000_20050101015900.nuv
myth.rebuilddatabase.pl --try_default
mythcommflag -f /myth/tv/1001_20050101010000_20050101015900.nuv
or
mythcommflag --video -f /myth/tv/1001_20050101010000_20050101015900.nuv

I think I will get my new box built before I start to experiment.
I don't want to miss any TV
Having issues with the new box and installing any knoppmyth on it. Which is funny because it is almost identical to my working MythTV box. DRATS. So it might be a few days or weeks till I can hack this thing up. Or hack a new box together. I do have an Epia, I am not sure if I will use it or not. I like it the way it is right now. We will see. Maybe find another box to hack to pieces.

I did research every piece of Linux editing software I could find. DVgrab is the tool I need to get working for simple digitizing. The complex multi recording I want to do would need more programming. And I don't do that well. Okay I am not a programmer and shouldn't even say I can do it. Cuz I can't.

Oh and the fact I have to work and have a LegacyCD that was due a while ago doesn't help with getting this project to the next level. It may be a week or two or a month before I get my experimenting done.

From what I can tell from different boards the firewire port in MythTV is used by cable boxes to communitcate the video data. MPEG-2 encoded video and the channel changing information. The data uses the IEEE-1394 pipeline but has nothing to do with DV. This is all 3rd hand info since I don't even have digital cable.
