does your DVD player support Mpeg4 (XviD/DivX)?

No, just VCD/DVD

I could go the long way of using Adobe Encore to transcode and author a DVD, but is there a more automatic way?

Yeah, vso's software is good. They changed the name to ConvertX to Dvd now though.

Another alternative is WinAvi. That does the same thing as Vso's software.

Let me just note, that if you are planning to watch these on a stand alone DVD player, they will have to be re-encoded in some way. By re-encoding to another format, you will not only lose quality, but the file sizes will grow, and you may not be able to fit them all on 1 DVD-r when you're finished with the 5-10 hours of encoding.

However, if you just want to keep the episodes for later viewing on your computer, you can burn them as a data ISO, and will not re-encode, or lose any quality. Which would be very beneficial if you have a TV-out port on your video card. ;)
