English term or phrase: DVD Authoring
What is the best term for "DVD Authoring"?

"DVD Authoring" is a type of DVD, see below explanation:

In 2000, DVD-R was split into two types to deal with copy protection. The original DVD-R, which uses a 650 nm recording wavelength, was dubbed "DVD-R for Authoring." A different format with copy protection that records at 635 nm is called "DVD-R for General." Although DVD-R(a) and DVD-R(g) can read each other's format, they cannot write each other's format

دی وی دی تالیفی / دی وی دی تالیف
Explanation:
"Authoring Program or Software" is normally translated as نرم افزار تالیفی or نرم افزار تالیف. I think it is possible to extend this meaning to this term as well. I have seen also ابداع for "authoring" in terms such as "authoring tool" which is translated as ابزار ابداع, but I do not personally recommend the latter one.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks, but that's not the case here. دی وی دی مادر is the translation for "original DVD" or "source DVD"

dvd authoring
dvd taalifi or DVD moalef


Explanation:
The explanation for the meaning of dvd authoring is as below: The process of preparing and copying audio, video, still images and navigational menus to a final DVD image, which can be burned to DVD-R or copied to DLT tape for reproduction.
I therefore think that the translation DVD taalifi/moalef might fit in this case

تدوین دی وی دی


Explanation:
Please note that "DVD-R for authoring" is quite different than "DVD authoring"; consoider the following deffinitions from Wikipedia:

DVD-R for Authoring: a special-purpose DVD-R used to record DVD masters, which can then be duplicated to pressed DVDs by a duplication plant. They require a special DVD-R recorder, and are not often used nowadays since many duplicators can now accept ordinary DVD-R masters.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD_formats

DVD authoring describes the process of creating a DVD video that can be played on a DVD player. ... Strictly speaking, DVD authoring is a separate process from MPEG encoding, but most modern DVD authoring software has a built-in encoder ... . Most authoring applications are for video DVDs only; they do not support the creation of DVD-Audio discs.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dvd_authoring

In the first sense, to be sure, a especial-purpose DVD type is at question; for this, I believe, the term sugessted by Mr. Ebrahimi fits best.
However, for the second sense, as it denotes a process and/or action the following terms can be used in different contexts:

1) as a process: (تدوین دی وی دی (فیلم
2) نرم افزار تدوین فیلم برای دی.وی.دی
3) as a person who perform the action: تدوینگر دی.وی.دی

همان گونه که هر چیزی منجمله کتاب نیاز به مجوز دارد، دی وی دی هم در کشورهای پیشرفته به مجوز نیاز دارد.

  -> من موافق هستم با همه دوستان. مجوز در اینجا به معنای قانون نیست، بلکه سلسله ای از مقررات است که روی هم برای کپی دی وی دی لازم است. ضمنا authority-authorizing-authoring همه بر یک فعل اشاره دارند. کسی که کتاب می نویسد اتوریته در آن رشته و سخن دارد.
