DVD Menus

Zarxrax · 28th January 2002, 16:53

I am very interested in recreating DVD menus for my Divx rips. I have recently developed a technique in which I can emulate the menu through html, and I am currently looking into reproducing menus with Flash. However, this is a rather tedious process to manually reproduce the menus. For example, I have to make all of the different connections like "when you click here, it takes you here". I am wondering if there is any software out there that can read this sort of information out of a DVD? Like PowerDVD knows where you can click and where to take you and all. If this information can be extracted, it may be possible for me to automate the process of recreating the menus somewhat. So does anyone know how I could access that information off my DVDs?

Yes there is one! Only one!

My VobEdit can do that!
Open the Menu-Vob file with VobEdit, and take a look at the navigation packs. They contain buttons, and they contain commands.
So can see what button does what.
