Enable Menu Encoding

[syril]

I've been away from Rebuilder for awhile, a long long time actually. However, I just picked up the latest Pro version and I noticed "Enable Menu Encoding." Is this function intended to replace using a program like NuMenu4U or is it for something else entirely? I have a feeling this option has been there for several versions.

By the way, I'm amazed at how Rebuilder has progressed. Great piece of software.

it allows reencoding of the menu similiar to the rest of dvdrb, enjoy

It reencodes the menus just like the rest of the DVD... on some discs that can be very significant. On others it may not. I personally turn it on and leave VTSM_MIN_SIZE at it's default. That way only large menus get reencoded.

i use menushrink to shrink the menus to still images. this usually saves me 200-500mb (or more, some menus have a lot of video). i still leave menu encoding enabled regardless, though.

The record saved is around 3Gb! Now, much would be unreffed material and would be killed by DVD Rebuilder (http://dvd-rb.dvd2go.org/) but lots is not.

If you do any preprocessing and just want a functional menu (as opposed to a fany one), I'd recommend MenuShrink (http://jean.laroche.free.fr/MenuShrink/). Very fast and saves lotsa time on encoding with DVD Rebuilder (http://dvd-rb.dvd2go.org/).
