<mainpage-leftcolumn-start gutter="50px"/> '''[[tovid suite|tovid]]''' is a collection of [http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html GPL] DVD authoring tools for Linux; it can help you create your own DVDs for playback on your home DVD player. This is the '''[[Edit the wiki|tovid wiki]]''', the official homepage of tovid. [https://github.com/tovid-suite/tovid/releases/download/v0.35.0/tovid-0.35.0.tar.gz Download] the latest version and read the '''[[tovid changelog | release notes]]''' * [[#News|News]] * [[#Intro|Intro]] * [[#Get|Get]] * [[#Help|Help]] * [[#Learn|Learn]] * [[#Contribute|Contribute]] * [[#Develop|Develop]] == News: == *'''June 2 2015 Tovid 0.35.2 is released''' See [[#Get|this section]] for details. * See [https://github.com/tovid-suite/tovid/releases github page] for changes. *'''April 11 2015 List of Packages updated!''' * The list of packages for various distributions has been updated, and old links removed. * Most major distros how have a package represented, though not necessarily officially. * See [[Installing_tovid#Platform-specific_instructions|this section]] *'''March 25 2015 Tovid has moved to Github!''' * The new address is [https://github.com/tovid-suite/tovid here] * Quick link to download [https://github.com/tovid-suite/tovid/releases/download/v0.35.0/tovid-0.35.0.tar.gz tovid-0.35.0] * Note on versioning: I have switched to the more commonly used Github practice of symantic versioning, hence 0.35.0 instead of 0.35. In practice this will affect nothing, as I do not intend at present to release anything but major releases, so the next release will be 0.36.0. * The tar.gz in the "Quick link" above is the same as the one previously uploaded with only a couple of minor non-runtime changes to accommodate the new address. I have also updated the one on google drive for those using the previously posted download address, that address will still work as before. *'''Jan.28 2015 Tovid 0.35 is released!''' See [[#Get|this section]] for details. *As of this release, mencoder has been removed and transcode is no longer a 'hard' dependancy, simplifying things for people who had difficulty installing those programs. As well makexml and makemenu have been removed as their functions are duplicated in the 'tovid disc' command. (see manpage for details, also [[Making a DVD with text menus]]). *Now avconv (libav.org) is supported as well as ffmpeg. * ''' July 23, 2011 tovid 0.34 released !''' See [[#Get|this section]] for details. *tovid needs a new owner! Please see [[New owner|this page]] if you are interested. :Note: this does not mean the project is dead, just that development is curtailed. Bugfixes will still be released, especially to keep up with fast moving backends like ffmpeg.
