Hi mpucoder, i have some questions regarding muxman respectively muxing in general:
Muxman (like ifoedit) seems to do the multiplexing in 2 steps:
1) generate the vob files with the video, audio and substreams.
2) iterate over the generated vob files and correct/generate missing informations (i suppose something like indexes, etc.)
- what exactly is done in this second step?
- i'm curious why the multiplexing can't be done in one step. (i'm sure there's a reason.) can you please explain why?

i guess you know bbMPEG. bbMPEG is able to multiplex mpeg1/2 video + audio too (VCD, SVCD, DVD). although the result is just an MPG file.
the point is: bbMPEG is *FAST*!! it seems to omit the second step at all. is the second step only necessary for generating VOB files / when a 'true' DVD structure is created?
can you offer this 'fast' multiplexing mode too? (omitting the second step).

thanks and greetings,
Malcolm
