The process is not that simple :-).

You have to:
1) create a valid (DVD compliant) mpeg stream.
   MPlayer and/or mjpegtools can be used for that.
2) build the vob files from the mpeg stream.
   You need dvdauthor.
3) create the udf filesystem (with mkisofs).
4) burn the image with a dvd burner program.
   growisofs is a good one.
