iDVD can handle mpeg2?
TiVo is "nearly" mpeg-2 and not 100% compatible. Plus there needs to be a
way to get it from the TiVo to the Mac. I'm using a Plextor ConvertX PVR
with EyeTV to import from TiVo. It doesn't have all of the features of
iMovie, but working with mpeg-2 is so much faster.
Editing TiVo files also leads to sync problems where audio/video no longer
macth up.
