Hi Albert :) this is the link to 64 Studio, a very good multimedia Linux distro, but with the original Linux philosophy not to include any law issue related stuff like dependencies e.g. for the video cut application Cinelerra:
http://www.64studio.com/ For real-time audio work I would recommend 64 Studio, but maybe for your needs AV Linux is the better choice, because they do add Cinelerra to the default installation: http://www.bandshed.net/AVLinux.html Anyway, if you like 64 Studio here's a howto add Cinelerra to an installation: http://www.64studio.com/howto_cinelerra And here's a link to the unknowing mailing list: http://www.64studio.com/mailing_lists For Linux you need several applications. For the cut (and titles) the best seems to be Cinelerra, http://heroinewarrior.com/cinelerra.php, but there are also some easier to use cut applications, anyway the first thing to do is to take a look at Cinelerra. What you need for titles depends to the other applications you'll use. You are using DVD-RAM? This is a problem for most Linux distros, especially for 64 Studio. I had better luck when using Suse. Btw. which distro do you use? Pardon, I guess you don't read a DVD-RAM but transmit the data by USB. Anyway, this might be something you need to do: 1. rename .VOR files to .mpg files 2. cut and convert by using Avidemux, I guess for titles you need e.g. Cinelerra 3. use KMediaFactory, http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=20121 or ManDVD, http://linux.softpedia.com/progDownload/ManDVD-Download-12812.html or http://2mandvd.tuxfamily.org/, to get the Video-DVD format 4. Burn the DVD by using K3b, http://k3b.plainblack.com/, if needed. This depends to the application you will use for authoring. Btw. Daniel has written a book about this, http://www.apress.com/book/view/1430218878.
