Version history:
tovid 0.34

(2011-07-22)

a new GUI for making multiple titlesets with tovid was added.

many updates/fixes for changes in some of the backends like ffmpeg and dvdauthor as well as numerous bugfixes.

New libavfilter features from ffmpeg have been implemented, so the -quick-menu option that used -vhooks now works again with a recent enough ffmpeg (0.8) with appropriate libavfiler version.

Several new options have also been added, including the ability to use your own arbitrary images for thumbnail links.

PNG is now used generally as an intermediary format instead of JPEG, resulting in improved picture quality.

It's a no-brainer tool. There is a GUI, but I perfer the command line interface.

Tovid only gets a 7 in functionality because of the lack of options, but I guess that can be a good thing for some people.

Tovid is simple to use. Type tovid-interactive, asks the name of the file to encode, format to encode to (DVD, VCD, SVCD), region (PAL/NTSC), size for DVD (D1, half-D1, quarter-D1), noise filter (Y/N), normalize audio (Y/N), aspect ratio (Full, Wide, Panovision), then output name. Then it's off.

Well done.

Just waiting on a full featured GUI now.
