(S)VCD Menu Stills, a la Vitualis

[digvid]

This is a question for Vitualis. I saw in another post that you created mpeg stills using CDMotion. I have this tool (yep, I actually registered it!) and want to do the same. I tried already by creating still picture slides and attaching my bmp's. Then I compiled the project, ripped it with vcdxrip, and used the .mpg files in my own VCDImager project. However, VCDImager always gives me the message that the items are not stills! What am I missing? Obviously this worked for you, so I want to know your secret.

Sincerely,
digvid

i use the philips toolkit for creating mpeg stills: create an 704x576 .bmp or .tif with paintshop pro or whatever, add it as a background for a menu in the philips toolkit and build the project; then you get a .mms file which works great with vcdimager (tested with the latest 0.79pre1).

I've only tried this for VCDs and they work perfectly. I don't know about SVCD.
