new release of VCDwizard : rel. 2.8.1.0

[Betamax]

A new release has been published of VCDwizard: 2.8.1.0

New in this release :
* At Sefy Levy's request, chapter import is advanced by also accepting ChapterXtractor's internal template "SuperVideoCD (hh:mms:cc)" (2nd preset of export tab).
* Using a fork of HvR's VCDxmInfo, lkVCDmInfo (part of the lkVCDimager-library), each mpeg which you add to VCDwizard will be scanned/analized.

Changes in this release :
* If you drop an image of type JPeG, GIF, BMP, TGA or PPM directly in the mpeg-listctrl of the MPeG-Page, VCDwizard will give you the possibility to create a STILL of it first.
* If you drop an INI or TXT file, containing chapter-information (you've previously exported using ChapterXtractor) onto a movie-stream in the mpeg-listctrl at the MPeG-Page, VCDwizard will add them to the existing entry-list of that mpeg.
* The "Disk Total" progress-ctrl has been made more accurate, so the size it gives you will be approximally the total size of the disk that would get created. A progressbar now also will be present at the ISO9660-page. Each custom file (even if you add CD-i) will also be counted into the "Disk Total" of the progress-ctrl.

The VCDwizard HomePage has been updated to this latest version and almost explains every option currently possible in VCDwizard.
Check it out...

A+

You do reliease I now have to rip my poor Superman DVD again so I can take new snapshots ?

I'm verry sorry :P , but if you can wait a week extra or so, my newest (and maybe last) update will come soon.

New in this next release will be:
I've figured how to encode and build a PhotoCD (in the form of a S/VCD) from images, one enters.
The whole process, from starting images to ending MPeG (result will be a file using my own binary structure - not realy a MPeG, though it contains the MPeG) will be done via VCDwizard (encoding via my mjpgTools.dll).
The end-file will contain besides the mpeg, also all entry-points where each photo starts in the MPeG.
If one drops such a file in the PBC-list, the intension is that the "PlayList" that will be created will automaticly initialized so the photo-mpeg plays like it should be in the vcd/dvd-player.

Possible Last : (why)
I'm figuring out how to start with a new project (or a sub-project for VCDwizard) to author DVD's (so that becomes "DVDwizard").
While I cannot use things like HvR's VCDimager, I must figure out myself how to do it.
