[FFmpeg-user] Question about conversion (Transcoding)

I have an mpeg2 file which I am trying to convert to a dvd iso.

I am using dvdauthor to do it.
dvdauthor says the file is not mpeg2 video compatible.

When I run ffprobe on the file, I get this

ffprobe /usr/tmp/title_3-09h31m23s.mpg

So, how do I convert this file to a DVD compatible mpeg2 file?
