[mythtvnz] recorded programmes file format

[skooobie doo]

I saw this change troo. Open the file directly in VLC and played okay.
Reading on this it is a native raw format that Myth uses, so I guess they
no longer transcode to mpg. In the release notes of v28.

You must be on v0.28 like me: "Use correct mimetypes and extensions for
MPEG2 PS/TS (could affect scripts/tools that expect filenames ending in
.mpg) [7bf6bb1]"...

The official version release notes:

Release Notes - 0.28

Key New Features
WebFrontend. The web interface that uses the webserver built-in the backend
(no configuration required.) As of 2016-02-12, MythWeb is still available
as WebFrontend is not feature complete to replace MythWeb.
Major Changes
Major UPnP overhaul The UPnP code has seen major changes, improved browsing
modes, more metadata, artwork for all media, strict UPnP (2014) and DLNA
compliance and support for additional UPnP features. (Note: Client support
for additional metadata varies. Client behaviour depends on UPnP
compliance.)
The cardinput table is no longer used, data has moved to capturecard
