XML, anyone help? hvr im looken at you ;)

[ThaSmig]

Ok, after studying this XML coding, i still do not get it. I was wondering if someone can help me out, kind off a 'short cut'. If anyone could please post/email a copy of a complete XML document that is for super vcd, and for vcd with chapters every 5 minutes you would really be helping me out, and probably some other people. I would 'love' to see how this XML thingy turns out
Thanks guys

Sample XML files can be downloaded at the XML repository page on the VCDImager website.

Hey vitualis, yeah i saw those 7? examples at that webpage but they didnt really indicate precisely on what wach one was for. It 'seemed' a little broad and a little too confusing for me.
Thanks anyway

Just download them and open them in a text editor. It should be fairly easy to understand (especially if you have a bit of HTML knowledge).

I do all my SVCD using a single mpg file with entry points every 4-5minutes. Here is a sample with tree entry points( 0, 5 and 10 minutes) you can copy&paste to add more playlist items

Thankyou very much for your example vrouleau
I have just burnt my first svcd with chapters every 5 minutes, and it worked like a charm.
Cheers

It will work in pretty much the same way with VCDs. There are no guarantees for XVCDs for obvious reasons.
