DVDMaker


This page is the page of DVDMaker, a Java utility that creates scripts for dvd-slideshow. 

DVDMaker takes a directory of image a movie files. It asks the user to give titles to some of the slides. Then, it creates a script (and some supporting files) that will call various utilities to create a DVD movie of your slides and photos.

Requirements

  • For DVDMaker itself :

    • A Linux environment,
