Description:
konqkonv is a KDE service menu which allows quick and easy conversion of video files (I've tried .avi, .mov and .mpg with it) into DVD or VCD compliant mpg files. You will need to have mencoder and/or ffmpeg installed and at least 5GB of free space in your home directory, maybe more depending on the size of the file being converted. Once finished, the mpg will be saved into the root of your home directory. For DVD mpgs you can then use Varsha to convert the mpg into a .iso file which can then be burned to DVD with k3bs 'Burn DVD iso image' option. For VCD mpgs you should just be able to drag and drop the mpg into a new k3b Video CD project window.
To install, just copy and paste the source code into the file /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/konqkonv.desktop (or /opt/kde3/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/ under SUSE) The video conversion options will then appear under the 'Actions' menu when you right-click a video file.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If you just get a blank konsole window with the title 'Time' (as I did under Debian Sid) then edit out every instance of the word time from konqkonv. It should work then but you won't see how long conversion took at the end.
If you have a video that fails then try upgrading to the latest version of mencoder/ffmpeg then it should hopefully work :)
Changelog:
0.1 - First release, only supports PAL mpg generation
0.2 - Second release, now supports NTSC too
0.3 - Added support for ffmpeg video encoder
