I've made myself a script, all2dvd, to convert movie files into dvd. 
First you need some utils:

   - MJPEG - http://sourceforge.net/projects/mjpeg/
   - dvdauthor - http://dvdauthor.sourceforge.net/
   - mplayer - ftp://ftp2.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases
   - growisofs - probably it's on your system already

In some cases, I've to tune it a bit.

-------- my script ------

#!/bin/sh                            

PID=$$
TMP="dvd.$$"

trap "echo ; kill $PID" ERR

if [ $# -lt 1 ]; then
   echo "Usage: `basename $0` <in-filename>"
   exit 1
fi

(
mkdir $TMP
cd $TMP
for FILE in $@; do
   if [ ! `echo $FILE | cut -c 1` = '/' ]; then
      FILE=$PWD/../$FILE
   fi
   rm -f stream.yuv
   mkfifo stream.yuv
   cat stream.yuv | yuvscaler -v 0 -M WIDE2STD -n p -O DVD | \
                    yuvfps -r 25:1 | mpeg2enc -v 0 -f 8 -o file.m2v &
   mplayer -noframedrop -vo yuv4mpeg -ao pcm "$FILE"
   if [ -r audiodump.wav ]; then
# Sometimes audiodump.wav has a bad header, so ensure for a good header:
      sox audiodump.wav -t cdr - | sox -t cdr - -r 48000 file.wav resample
      normalize file.wav
      ffmpeg -i file.wav -vn -ab 224 -ar 48000 -ac 2 -y file.ac3
      rm -f audiodump.wav file.wav
      mplex -v 0 -f 8 file.m2v file.ac3 -o file.mpg
   else
      mplex -v 0 -f 8 file.m2v -o file.mpg
   fi
   rm -f file.m2v file.ac3
   dvdauthor file.mpg -o dvd
#   rm -f file.mpg
done
dvdauthor -T -o dvd &&

echo -e "\nConverting has finished." &&
read -p "Insert a blank DVD-ROM and hit <ENTER>." &&
eject -t $SRC &&
growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -dvd-compat -dvd-video dvd/
) 2>&1 | tee $TMP/log

------- end ------

    Best luck,

       Jos.
