Hi!
You could try this ffmpeg command:
ffmpeg -i file.mpg -vcodec copy -bsf:v h264_mp4toannexb 00001.ts
Do you have to replay the VDR files with a FF-card or xinelib frontend?
With xinelib this ts files should work.
BR,
Stephan.

I got some video files in MPEG PS format.
These files would not play in VDR even if put them in directories named
after timestamps and name them 00001.ts. The command vdr --genindex
fails to create any index file.
However, if I first convert them to MPEG TS format with
ffmpeg -i file.mpg -c copy 00001.ts
then VDR will recognize and play the files (but report at least one
error per second).
I was wondering if there is a way to play MPEG PS recordings in VDR, or
a FUSE program that would make the recordings appear as something that
VDR recognizes. If I understand correctly, the MPEG PES format that VDR
originally used (the 001.vdr files) is kind of a subset of the PS format.
If possible, I'd like to avoid any such conversion, at most add some
index files for VDR playback.
I found https://github.com/vdr-projects/vdr-plugin-dvd which should be
able to deal with the video format (DVD uses MPEG PS), but I suppose it
would only work with an actual DVD (if it is compatible with a current
VDR version).
