'Q' DVD-Author - README

This project was started in December 2003 after we had our first child and I wanted to create a DVD to send to my parents. I found that no GUI existed at that time but all the command line tools were there. 

It took me a long time to create my first DVD and it was a major pain to learn all the command line tools to get there.

So I decided to write a quick and easy GUI to handle all the tasks to create a DVD. After about 3 months I had a young project which soon started to grow and grow and grow and ...

At this time QDVDAuthor has reached ithe first beta, version 0.1.0 and you can use it to create Menus, sub-menus, convert input videos into the right format, preview all material and obtain all information about them. 

It has grown beyond its initial planned quick-and-dirty tool state and is now well on its way to become the premiere DVD authoring suite for Linux.

I am working towards the first release which will allow the user to create a full blown VideoDVD with all the whistle and bells attached thereto.

So stay tuned in and follow the progress - page on the web site to keep up to date.
