IF YOU TRY ANY OF THIS YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK! I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST RECORDINGS, ETC...
I really like MCEBuddy. It is well-written and works pretty well for making .MP4 files from .TS files.
Now on my .MP4 files, I like to use 160 bit rate for the AAC audio and 1000 average bit rate for video. My converted .TS files look GREAT and are a lot smaller in file size with almost unnoticeable loss of quality.
To set up MCEBuddy...
Here is the code for "mencoder.conf"...
You might not want to run MCEBuddy during NPVR EPG updates. Say NPVR updates the EPG at midnight. You might open MCEBuddy and tell it to only convert between 2 and 20. Why 20? Because MCEBuddy might start at 8:00 PM and not finish something until 10 or 11 if it is a long recording. I also stop MCEBuddy when I am gaming.

To set up MCEBuddy...
- Download MCEBuddy from http://www.mcebuddy.com/ and install it. There are both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. After the install, DO NOT RUN MCEBUDDY!
- Open NOTEPAD as ADMINSTRATOR.
- In Notepad, browse to "C:\Program Files\Tyrell\MCEBuddy\mplayer".
- Open "mencoder.conf".
- Hit the ENTER key twice to make two blank lines from the top of the file then add the code below to the top of "mencoder.conf" and re-save the file.
- Open MCEBuddy.
- Select "H.264 MP4 1000/160 TV (No Resize, 2 Pass)" from the drop-down list.
- Check the boxes in front of DELETE ORIGINAL (at your own risk and only if you no longer want the original .TS files), SORT BY SERIES, and SUB DIRECTORIES.
- Change FILE SELECTION to *.ts and change the VIDEO PATHS SOURCE and DESTINATION to where GBPVR saves recordings to.
- Click START to start the MCEBuddy service.
Here is the code for "mencoder.conf"...
