+backlite provides several tools for backing up DVDs, including DVD9 to
+DVD5 conversion.
+
+This is the Qt-only version of the KDE DVD backup utility k9copy.
+
+Optional runtime deps are libdvdcss (for DVD Backup action),
+along with mjpegtools and twolame (for DVD Author action).
+
+Due to the lack of upstream maintainers and the ongoing changes to
+ffmpeg, it might be necessary to change some of the default ffmpeg
+command line options in the Encoders configuration section and/or
+ffmpeg encoding might not be fully functional.
+However, backlite can use mencoder instead of ffmpeg, provided that
+MPlayer is rebuilt with the required codecs (x264, xvid, lame,
+libmp4v2, faac, etc.)
