DeVeDe

Tool	Description	Type	Rating	Comment
DeVeDe	DeVeDe is a program to create video DVDs, suitables for home players, from any number of video files, in any of the formats supported by Mplayer. The big advantage over other utilites is that it only needs Mplayer, Mencoder, DVDAuthor, MKisofs (well, and Python, PyGTK and PyGlade), so its dependencies are really small.

	Finally a good free alternative to Nero Vision. I gave a valiant attempt to get AVStoDVD to compile my mp4 files to DVD. Wouldn't finish. Non-existent error recovery or reporting. Then looked thru VideoHelp for an alternative and discovered DeVeDe. What a difference. Worked first time w/o errors or crashing. Excellent proggie. Posted January 14, 2010 by geneaum.

	Great App, Simple easy to use yet tweakable for those who know the intricacies of mencoder. Accepts both my camcorder DV and MJPEG Digicam files and does a good job of formatting and encoding them to DVD compliant MPEG-2. Has the capability for menus (I don't use them) and will accept .mpg files that are ready to author without being converted. A small but mighty app with few dependencies, Well Done!

	This has to be the easiest tool in Linux, for creating a DVD. I've been using DeVeDe since version 1.4, and it gets better and faster with each new release. Try it, you'll not be disappointed.

	What a great app! I put together an extension for konqueror called konqkonv to convert movies to DVD under Linux but DeVeDe is miles better as it can combine multiple clips, for a start, and it gives you the finished iso too. DeVeDe is by far the easiest way yet to create video DVDs under Linux and I can't see how it could ever get much easier, especially seeing as you can install DeVeDe with a click if its in your distro (its in the debian-multimedia repository for one) I must come clean that I have been the main tester for this immortal app and every time I found a bug or missing feature Sergio (the developer) would fix or add it almost instantly- what a star! Thanks Sergio! The only real notable feature absent from the current version (2.3) that I can think of is if you feed an already DVD-compliant mpeg file into it (eg as output from xdtv or mencoder) it will convert it regardless. This will be fixed for 2.4 but then again that situation will probably be less common. Highly recommended! Posted September 11, 2006 by danboid.
