How do I add a menue to a SVCD on mac?

[incredible]

Hi!

I just visited the page (http://homepage.mac.com/rnc/MMGen.html) where I can download the tool MissingMenueGen.
But how does it work? Do I have to build a menue before with photoshop like in DVD Studio pro? Or does MissingMenueGen create the menue screen itself?

Thanks for asisstance!

How to make a mpeg still menu.

1) Design your menu screen on a 720x480 pallet.
Remember this is NOT dvd, you will need to tell the viewer what number relates to each movie track.
Leave at least a 50 pixels blank border. Remember the edges of an image will be behind the bezzel around the picture tube of your TV.
2) Save as jpeg or other format supported by Quicktime.
3) Open image in QT, select Copy, then Paste, then Export as QT movie, this will make a two frame movie. (this has to be done to over come a flaw interduced in MediaPipe0.8.2, should be fixed in next release)
4) Use MissingMpegTools to command MediaPipe to make a Mpeg Still.
6) Use Mplex from MissingMpegTools to multiplex as a Still.
Set the path to the mpv made with MediaPipe, use any audio .mpa you may have, it will be ignored. (I'll fix than in the next release of MMT)
7) With some luck, your still menu is ready. If can be viewed with VideoLAN if you wish.

For the real lazy, there is a online encoder at http://www.vcdimager.org/stillencode/
