Well, I am glad to announce that Sir Didymus came up with his BatchMux plugin for DVD2SVCD which does exactly what I would never have been able to do: Integrate Muxman transparently into DVD2SVCD. See this thread:

This makes this thread obsolete, can a Mod please close it?
The only situation where the D2S_Imago plugin can still be useful is when you absolutely want to create a muxed MPEG2 file. Muxman cannot do this. For me this is the case when I want to use DVDAuthorGUI or DVDStyler to author a DVD with some simple menus. If you feed elementary streams to these authoring apps, they use Mplex for muxing. The only way to avoid this is to feed already muxed streams to them, and this is where Imago comes in handy.
Please observe that D2S_Imago has another limitation I had not thought of until now: All the audio, video and muxed files have to be in the same D2S work folder. If you specify separate folders for audio and video, D2S_Imago will not work. I have no intention to fix this since the plugin should be considered obsolete now.
