Ken, I'm sorry, I had no intention of fighting anyone. I was simply under the impression that you might have actually referred to DVD authoring (creation of the disc, chapters, burning etc,but I understand where you are coming from. I completely agree that the terms interpretation completely depends on the used context. I really did not have any intention of stirring up something. I thought there might have been some confusion and I might be able to help resolve the confusion. All is good now ^_^.
Wish everybody a nice weekend Chris

Chris, I didn't know that either. In fact, Sorin answered the question I was thinking of when I posted it. It's really counter-intuitive, even misleading, that "authoring" means burning the DVD... or maybe it means that in the context of DVDs, but means something else in the context of film/video production. (But then in that latter context, "producing" means "supplying or arranging the funding for", which is also misleading.) When someone says they authored a book, to me that doesn't mean they only printed it, bound it, and put a cover on it. Well, it's not something worth pounding to death. People had to have been happier before there was language. :)

Sorin, authoring a movie usually refers to actually creating a disc (e.g. DVD/Blu-Ray with chapter marks and what not). It's the step that comes after you've shot and edited the movie, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD_authoring. As far as I know K3B, Bombone DVD and DeVede are capable of authoring DVDs. K3B (version dependent) should even be able to create Blu-Ray discs so that they are playable on standalone players.
Kind Regards Chris

I'm suprised no one yet has mentioned authoring movies. Maybe the software to do this isn't available for Linux???
I use Openshot Video Editor on a weekly basis to cut and edit my m/c-instructoring clips and then post to Youtube. ;-) I've more or less abandoned Pinnacle since I discovered Openshot. The encoding stuff is so much faster on CentOS than Windows... -- //Sorin
