Thanks for the links but this ppa does not have packages for ubuntu 
10.04 available.
Which is no surprise since the dvdstyler version I need (1.8.2) needs 
some new ffmpeg stuff.

I tried to compile dvdstyler but it complais about a missing function in 
the installed version of ffmpeg:

$./configure --prefix=/usr/local | grep no
checking ffmpeg/avutil.h usability... no
checking ffmpeg/avutil.h presence... no
checking for ffmpeg/avutil.h... no

Yes I think I would prefer the option running the windows application 
with wine as all dependencies are included in the installer. The 
application works so far, but I have been out of luck setting the right 
locale.
launching with
$ LC_ALL="de_DE ISO-8859-15" wine DVDStyler.exe
didn't work either.

If you have further advice please let me know
