* I have tested divxtodvd yesterday. That is a good base.

Some warnings :
- This project looks to be too oriented to gentoo (patches for transcode)
- There are issue when using /tmp

depending on the permission on the / an user can not write on tmp.
I suggest using ~/tmp instead, or better, to create a:
~/.divx2dvd/

- I used it with the transcode 1.0rc3. There are some options to change (-V -> --use_rgb )

- What about using a design that creation of gui? I am trying to create an other script that can be used either with or without gui.
