DESCRIPTION:
Magicvid is a gui for several shell scripts
and command line tools for processing
and burning video files. My goal is to
create a gui for these functions that is
easy to understand and use. You can do every
step of the dvd or vcd authoring process here except for authoring
the dvd. I like Qdvdauthor for this step.
Magicvid will:
1--Convert any video that mplayer can play
to dvd or vcd ready format.
2--Shrink .mpg files by a set
%.
3--Join two .mpg video
files.
4--Create a dvd-video.iso from a dvd fileset
(output from qdvdauthor for example).
5--Create a vcd .bin/.cue image to burn to
vcd
6--Direct copy a cd into .iso format and
burn to a cd with two button clicks.
7--Burn a dvd-video.iso to a blank
dvd-r.
9--Burn a vcd .bin/.cue image to a
cd-r.

Depends:
Magicvid is a gui for the programs and
scripts listed below,this might as well
be the depends list too since all of them
are needed by magicvid but if one or
two is missing everything else should work
fine.
You should have QT 3 installed to compile
magicvid.
