Q DVD-Author

'Q' DVD-Author

'Q' DVD-Author is a GUI frontend for dvdauthor and related tools. 

The goal is to provide an easy-to-use, yet powerful and complete interface to generate DVD menus, slideshows, and videos to burn on a DVD.

'Q' DVD-Author uses one of three tools to convert the input video: video-to-DVD, a script from the videotrans project; transcode; and MEncoder.

The software has been translated into German, Italian, French, Spanish, Polish, and Esperanto. It comes with a built-in library of approximately 200 objects such as buttons and frames, and offers 22 templates.

DVD authoring describes the process of creating a DVD video that can be played on a DVD player. DVD authoring software must conform to the specifications set by the DVD Forum group in 1995.
