The menu vob on a dvd is just an mpeg. It is the authoring of the dvd that allows you to use the remote to navigate the menu. If you just rip the menu vob and put it on a vcd/svcd, ya ain't got no functionality.

There are some decent guides here that might cover help menus.

What are you producing? VCD, SVCD, miniDVD ?
You can produce different menus with these.

Let us know what kind and I'm sure you'll get some help....
