This tree is a fork of DeVeDe-NG that adds embedded-subtitle hardsubbing (burn-in), selectable DVD encode profiles, and automatic splitting of long projects across multiple ISOs/DVD-Rs. See FORK_NOTES.md for details.

DEVEDE NG

WHAT IS IT?

Devede NG is a rewrite of the Devede DVD disc authoring program. This new code has been writen from scratch, and uses Python3 and Gtk3. It is also cleaner, which will allow to add new features in the future.

INSTALLING DEVEDE NG

Just type:

sudo ./setup.py install

USING DEVEDE NG

The first alpha version of Devede NG is very similar to the old devede, with the exception that, when creating a DVD disc, there are no more "titles" and "files". Instead, you just add files to the disc. It also lacks support for Mencoder, and can use only FFMpeg or AVConv for video conversion.

The current visible changes are quite small in number:

  • Now allows to add several files at once
  • Now makes better use of multicore systems by parallelizing the conversion of several movie files
  • The menu edition is interactive
  • Has a new "cut" resizing method, to allow to store as widescreen movies with black bars
  • Allows to create Matroska files with H.264 video and MP3 audio
  • Allows to use VLC or MPlayer for preview
  • Allows to choose between Brasero or K3B for burning the discs
  • Allows to set properties for several files in one step
  • Allow to choose the subtitle colors

THINGS TO DO

Some of the future ideas to add to Devede NG are, without an specific order:

  • add more backends
  • add more output formats
  • allow to replace the movie's audio track with one or several MP3 or OGG audio files
  • widescreen menus for DVDs
  • choose between MP2 and AC3 audio for menus
  • preview of a converted menu
