i've been playing with qdvdauthor recently.  there was a bit of a
learning curve for me to figure out how to use it.  and i had to change
the burning commands in it's burn dialog.  i had problems with the
multiplexing (mplex program) of sound (actually no sound) in the menus.

but, its finally working. at least for menus with no sound.  and, i'm
actually pretty pleased with it.

as i dis-remember exactly, i had to get the cvs version to get it to
compile on fc4 though.
