Brasero als Linux-Alternative zu Windows DVD Maker
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Brasero is not a good replacement for Windows DVD Maker if you need to create video DVDs with menus, background music, or title overlays. It lacks video transcoding, DVD-Video structure creation, and any timeline-based editing. However, for users who only need to burn data DVDs containing video files for playback on computers or media players, Brasero works fine. It’s suitable for basic disc burning but won’t generate standard DVD-Video discs playable in set-top players. Not recommended for former Windows DVD Maker users wanting similar functionality.

Brasero does not support importing or opening project files created by Windows DVD Maker, and cannot generate compatible DVD-Video file structures. While it can burn MP4, AVI, and JPG files to disc as data, these will not play as standard DVDs in most standalone players. There is no built-in conversion to DVD-Video format (VOB, IFO, BUP). Users must manually convert videos using external tools if targeting broad DVD player compatibility.

- Use a separate tool like DVDStyler to create DVD-Video structure with menus

Can Brasero create a playable video DVD from MP4 files?
No, Brasero cannot convert MP4 files into DVD-Video format or create a playable DVD structure. You need a dedicated video DVD authoring tool for that.
Is there a Linux alternative that does what Windows DVD Maker did?
DVDStyler and DeVeDe are closer matches, offering DVD menu creation and video conversion, though setup may require more effort than the original Windows tool.
Why use Brasero at all for video?
Brasero is useful for burning video files as data to DVD, especially when the target device reads data discs. It’s not for creating standard DVD-Video discs.
