Hi bilu,
There is a command-line "dvdauthor" floating around. I've ben meaning to
dive into it to see what I can gui with. But, I've ben lazy and busy w/ other
things. vcdhelp might have some info too. They have a
PROGRAMMING forum
over there too. Look for user, "Liquid217" - a nice guy

he did a "dvd author gui"
app using dvdauthor as his port.
You can look under:
*
free dvd authoring tool - only 5 pages deep
If I can help, I'd be happy to lend a hand here or there, as well as others
here too, I'm sure
Also, I'm with you too, on command-line tridition. I like working with apps
that are in this mode... always room for new

's
Keep us informed.. and Cheers,
-vhelp
