You can take any mpeg stream supported by the hardware/driver for replay 
with VDR. (S)VCD streams can be ripped from VCD to files eg. with 
vcdxrip which comes with vcdimager. Simply copying vobs from DVD to 
001.vdr etc. should work too.

genindex doesn't work yet with all types of mpegs but can certainly be 
extended. Replay without seeking works without the index.vdr file.
