You might be interested in Lawrence D'Oliveiro's fork of dvdauthor at 
http://wiki.github.com/ldo/dvdauthor/

He has been doing some tidy up work on dvdauthor as development by the 
primary author has been stalled since 2007.

I supplied Lawrence with some mpeg files recorded from a Hauppauge 
pvr350 card early this year so he could evaluate the ivtv patch for 
dvdauthor.  Looking at his git master it appears he hasn't yet included 
the patch.  I'll chase him up to find out if and when he will be 
including the patch in dvdauthor.

Cheers
Michael.
