Ubuntu – DVD from MPEG

I’ve been creating DVD’s recently from my DV camcorder, it turns out it’s quite easy, but on my laptop [due to it not having much processing power] takes ages.  So here are the steps.

1, i’m port your video into kino, export it to MPEG [8 DVD]
2, make sure you have dvdauthor and mkisofs installed on your pc, a simple apt-get install will do it for you
3, run the following commands from the folder where the MPEG is
1, dvdauthor -o dvd -t
2, dvdauthor -o dvd -T
3, mkisofs -dvd-video -o dvd/
4, burn off your ISO using your fave burning app [i use k3b]

Watch and Enjoy :)
