Just because they're cheap doesn't mean they're rubbish ;-)
DVDA is part of the DVD Book formats and as such 'should' be supported
by all 'good' DVD players.
Often players will support the competing SACD instead - or not support
DVDA at all. I've no idea whether this is a zonal Seacam/PAL market thing.
DVDA is much better than CDDA - SACD (Sony/Phillips), has few advantages.
Many (standalone) DVD players will also play several audio file formats
(eg. mp3, and ogg) and video formats (eg. avi, mpeg). Sadly many don't.
Others won't support burnt DVDs (only pressed).
Having said that... I'm no longer sure what the answer to the OP's
question is - I'm guessing it depends on the player in question.
If the OP's player supports DVDA then AFAIK the only Linux tool is:-
