freebsd stable - Jun 2003 - dvd+rw-tools ported to FreeBSD (Sony 500A DVD[+/-]R[W] support)

I just finished up a port of Andy Polyakov's excellent dvd+rw-tools
    to FreeBSD, and he has incorporated the patches into his release:

	http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/
	http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/
	http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/tools/

	(version 5.8.4.4.4)

    These tools support DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, and DVD+RW format dvd burners,
    including the popular Sony 500A (which I just bought myself, hence the
    port). 

    It should work on a wider variety of burners then the half-broken
    GNU dvdrecord tools work on (the GNU dvdrecord is a hacked up version
    of the original cdrecord).  Andy's tool set is based around his 
    growisofs program which features multi-session recording capabilities.

    You also need to have mkisofs installed since growisofs uses it.  You
    can burn individual files or ISO images with andy's tools.

    Someone should build a FreeBSD port for this toolset, there's a gaping
    hole in the FreeBSD ports tree where DVD-recording ought to be.

OK.  How does this look:

XDVD+RW Tools by Andy Polyakov.  This software allows one to use a DVD
Xburner, as well as supporting multisession CD-R/W formats, primarily
Xvia the "growisofs" utility.
X
Xgrowisofs was originally designed as a frontend to mkisofs to facilitate
Xappending of data to ISO9660 volumes residing on random-access media such as
XDVD+RW, DVD-RAM, plain files, hard disk partitions.  In the course of
Xdevelopment general purpose DVD recording support was implemented, and as of
Xnow growisofs supports not only random-access media, but even mastering of
Xmulti-session DVD media such as DVD+R and DVD-R/-RW. In addition growisofs
Xsupports first-/single-session recording of arbitrary pre-mastered image
X(formatted as UDF, ISO9660 or any other file system, if formatted at all) to
Xall supported DVD media types.

How timely!  I was just working last night on burning some mpgs to DVD to
watch on a standard DVD player.  The dvdrecord program worked fine for
that step, but it's good to see more tools.  What would really be nice is
a working dvdauthor port - the one that's there has missing dependencies
and certain parts of the toolchain (like mpeg2desc) that just didn't work.
Does anyone use any other tools to author video DVDs under FreeBSD?  Even
to the extent of using a Windows app like Nero under wine?
