  == CD and DVD Authoring and Burning ==
  
- Fedora include a variety of tools for easily mastering and burning CDs and DVDs.  GNOME users can burn directly from the Nautilus file manager. There are also specialized media writing software such as `brasero`,`gnomebaker` or `k3b` available in Fedora, for these tasks.  Console tools include {{{wodim}}}, {{{readom}}}, {{{genisoimage}}} and other popular applications.

  == Screencasts ==
  
- You can use Fedora to create and play back ''screencasts'', which are recorded desktop sessions, using open technologies.  Fedora includes `istanbul`, which creates screencasts using the Theora video format as well as 'byzanz' which creates screencasts as animated GIF files.  These videos can be played back using one of several players included in Fedora.  This is the preferred way to submit screencasts to the Fedora Project for either developer or end-user use.  For a more comprehensive how-to, refer to the ScreenCasting page.

  == Extended Support through Plugins ==
  
- Most of the media players in Fedora support the use of plugins to add support for additional media formats and sound output systems.  Some use powerful backends, like the `gstreamer` package, to handle media format support and sound output.  Plugin packages for these backends and for individual applications are available in Fedora and additional plugins may be available from third parties to add even greater capabilities.
