    ManDVD works best for me.

    I doesn't have an incredible lot of features, but it does in a simple step by step system import any Mplayer video type, converting if necessary, set up chapter points and a simple menu, all graphically, then saves the project to iso for burning. Sounds like just what you need.

    I've already installed ToVid but on creating menu I'm stuck on „Default“ font. So I downloaded and exercised (to /home folder) „ Anthony Thyssen's imagick_type_gen.pl script“ from the Tovid Wiki but font isn't seeing any more fonts as default. Any suggestions please?

    A soltion to the fonts problem found on another forum, quote...“In the tovid scripts, replace convert -list type with convert -list font if your version of ImageMagick has updated that feature as mine had...
    (run those 2 commands in a shell to test)

    I found that the following files had to change:
    Code:
    /usr/share/tovid/makemenu
    /usr/share/python-support/tovid/libtovid/gui/configs.py“

    Works, now using ToVid instead of DeVeDe
