I guess transferring the recorded programs from Myth is a nobrainer as hey are in MPG format now.

Yes, they can be directly read with mplayer through a vdr's plugin, or be converted with nuvexport.

But I still don't know whether there is a tool to convert a mythtv recording to the native vdr format, for example :

/video/<Name of the recording>/2006-03-05.21.48.50.99.rec/ 001.vdr 002.vdr index.vdr info.vdr

Does somebody know how ?

I think ProjectX has both VDR input and output support, but I don't know if the output actually works. If it does, conversion from (almost) any other MPEG-1/2 container format should be possible.
