Videopack 5 - anyone use yet?

[Kusanagi]

Using mostly WinOnCD 3.8 PE for XVCDs with menus done in Photoshop. $499 is kinda steep for me for VP5, but if i can con my boss that we need it, may be able to get it Anyone use it at all or test it out? Can you still import 720x480 images made in photoshop/psp/etc as menus and can you still import xvcd-compliant mpgs from TMPGEnc to VP5, like I can currently do in WinOnCD 3.8PE?

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

LOL! I prefer Nero for my VCD, whether XVCD or SVCD or whatever-VCD, needs. I don't think it cost more than $100. =)

Yep, I have that..umm...'acquired' version of Nero too...but Menus were always kinda lacking for me and the ability to import professional made DVD-like menu templates from photoshop/illustrator/etc and the addition of looping background music made alot of discs i made really stand out from others....plus, remember I aint goin' to pay a cent, the company were i work would ...i'd be crazy to fork out that amount for a package!
