How to create a DVD from an AVI under linux.

To convert the avi file to the proper format:

movie-to-dvd -m ntsc -o test -q high CD1/orc-revrd1.avi CD2/orc-revrd2.avi

Switch to the test directory and create a text file of the same name as each of the m2v files that you want to put as a movie.

To create the title vob:

movie-make-title -o title -m ntsc  -s 130 -e 150 CD1/orc-revrd1.avi

To create the movie menu:

movie-title -o title.vob -t title test/orc-revrd1.m2v test/orc-revrd2.m2v

There is an xml file that you can edit if you want all the vobs to be part of the same movie.   Just do the first chapter in the above command and then copy the line for each part you want as the same mov

To create the DVD, run:

dvdauthor -o dvd_directory -x title.vob-dvdauthor.xml

To clean up any mess afterwards, run:

movie-title -C -o title.vob -t title test/orc-revrd1.m2v test/orc-revrd2.m2v
