Help with HD-DVD encoding

[dark.soft]

Hi, I own an HV20 HDV camcorder, and I need a way to backup my .mpeg transport stream files. At first I thought I would simply burn them on a DVD-DL, but then I remembered of HD-DVD. Since HDV is MPEG2, wich is supported by HD-DVD, why not to make an HD-DVD (burned on a DVD-DL) out of the transport files? In this way I could watch them on an HD-DVD player, and if needed I could extract the untouched video and edit it. I tried with Scenarist Standard Content 4.01, but it won't accept the raw mpeg capture files. I tried to convert them to program streams using MPEG2VCR with no result. I also live in a PAL land, and I recorded the video in 25p mode (wich I think is stored as 50i), so, even if I succed to make an HD-DVD, will software and standalone player support this frame rate?

I need a way to put the original, untouched HDV video and audio on HD-DVD. Is there a way to do this?

EDIT: wrong section, I'm sorry.

scenarist only accepts elementry stream, you need to use tools like DGindex to demux ts file first. if that still fails, you need to get the error info from scenarist, and then tweak your m2v/mpv accordingly, if it complains too high bitrate, then you'll have to re-encode your movie, if it complains GOP size not correct, usually womble video wizard can fix that.
