DVD Authoring

[Jonathan Hutchins]

For actually authoring the DVD, I've found a set of scripts called tovid.  
Safe to run the CVS, since they're just scripts/wrappers for other functions, 
and they are working on it on an hourly basis.  I have literally made a 
request and had the feature within five minutes.   The main scripts are 
console-based, but there is a gui and a tk guy which basically run the 
scripts with slightly limited options.  You can run through with the GUI and 
get the commands to make the disk, then just tweak the fine points in the 
console, or you can take what the GUI gives you which is pretty nice.

I use avidemux for some other things like editing or trimming.  Not sure why 
it's hanging on you, try ignoring that startup command.
