. I'll try to describe them here, and if somebody notices some
glarious goofs (or not so glarious) - I would greatly appreciate the
feedback. I am fairly new to DVD authoring, and to MythTV, and I
*have* to burn the shows on DVD for my reputation to survive...
1. mythburn. I got quite far with this... I downloaded from
sourceforge <http://sourceforge.net/projects/mythburn/>
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/mythburn/), tinkered with install.sh
(changed directories and user/group names) and successfully ran it:
MythWeb is installed at /var/www/html/mythweb
Installing DVD Menu option into MythWeb
However, there is no DVD menu option - there are *no* options under
MythWeb. I restarted backend, just in case - is there any last steps
to configure mythweb to enable this option?
Any ideas? Please!

Felix, I haven't tried mythburn, I have tried the other two and
have found option 4 (ProjectX/dvdauthor) better :-)
Not perfect, but better. ProjectX allows you to cut out
unwanted segments without stuffing the audio/video sync, the
other two caused me problems in that area.
The only problem I've had with ProjectX/dvdauthor
is that the burnt discs won't play perfectly in some DVD
players. Seems to be something causing jumping/looping
problems. But hey, they work fine in mine (Pioneer).
cheers
Carl.
Carl,
ProjectX seemed too daunting... too many packages to choose from, and
completely not clear what's needed for what! Maybe after 3 failures I
wasn't adventures to try yet another option :-\ Anyway, I made some
more progress with mythburn. First, I figured that there are *two*
mythwebs. One is an option in mythfrontend (Information Center - Web)
that is empty for me; and another is php site http://localhost/mythweb
(which I completely forgot about).
It seems that install script puts itself as an option into that php
site, but fails. Even so, I can start it directly
http://localhost/mythweb/mythtvburndvd/ Generally, it has a lot of
hard-coded stuff. But I am OK playing around with PHP, so I think I am
getting somewhere here. If (once ;-) ) I get stuck - I'll try ProjectX.
Any "quick start" documentation for that?
Thanks
Felix
