rendering cam-compatible HDV MPEGTS files

I have been successful in exporting HDV back out to my cam. I haven't posted detailed output from the individual steps before, so here it is:

General Steps
1) export video from Cinelerra as mpeg2 using mpeg2enc
2) export audio from Cinelerra as mp3
3) mux in mplex
4) open MPEGPS in VLC and convert to TS.

Detail
1) export video from Cinelerra as mpeg2 using mpeg2enc:
mpeg2enc --verbose 0 --aspect 3 --format 3 --frame-rate 4 --video-bitrate 18300 --nonvideo-bitrate 384 --interlace-mode 0 --force-b-b-p --video-buffer 448 --video-norm n --keep-hf --no-constraints --sequence-header-every-gop --min-gop-size 6 --max-gop-size 6 -o /mnt/videos/20050721/20050721.m2v

2) export audio from Cinelerra as mp3:
--------------------------------------------
Input File : 'stdin' 48.0 kHz
Output File: '/mnt/videos/20050721/test.mp3'
384 kbps MPEG-1 Layer II j-stereo Psy model 1
[De-emph:Off Copyright:No Original:No CRC:Off]
[Padding:Normal Byte-swap:Off Chanswap:Off DAB:Off]
ATH adjustment 0.000000
--------------------------------------------
encode_init: using tablenum 0 with sblimit 27
Hit end of audio data
Avg slots/frame = 1152.000; b/smp = 8.00; bitrate = 384.000 kbps


3) mux in mplex

4) open MPEGPS in VLC and convert to MPEGTS.

Update 3/14/2008
Once the video is converted, you may then output to the camera using test-mpeg2 from libiec61883:

Also, take note of a possible 2GB limit in libiec61883 uploading your content to the cam:
