devede looks good to me. I'll replace dvdstyler with devede as we seem
to lean on that choice. We can still change it, if there is a strong
opinion for that.

I installed both devede and bombono-dvd

sudo apt-get install devede
gave me a boring but very functional and faithfully working DVD burner.
Basic edition is there, i can chose colors, position and fonts for text,
png (only png) for background after a little fiddling, i made that DVD
my own. Although

sudo apt-get install bombono-dvd
gave me a good looking piece of software, i get the impression i might
do more, but at some point, my computer freezes to the point where not
even ctrl+alt+F2 will do. (Obviously, my computer being, well,
/my computer/, all i'm saying here is my _personal_ experience was
frustrating.)

So, I vote for devede.

Basically the same info there. devede looks like the the best choice at

Bombono-dvd is in Ubuntu, an attempt was made to get it into Debian, but
it seems to have stalled for some reason. Alessio was maintaining it,
but I know he is very busy these days. So if we want to seed it, we
would probably have to start maintaining it ourselves, or try and finish

Re: [ubuntu-studio-devel] DVD authoring software

2016-03-11 Thread Dennis Schulmeister
Hi Len,

Judging from the website and sourceforge it seems that the "free"
version of Bombono hasn't been updated either in the past four years.
That's a pity. I used it once about two years ago as it was the only
available program where I could use a video instead of an image as
backdrop for the DVD menu.

As far as I remember all DVD authoring tools just use dvdauthor in the
background ...

Dennis
