Hi Stroller, |

|

I also would like to have a copy of your perl-script for this. It would make |
| 18 |
my life a lot easier trying to convert my dvd-collection. |

As for the "unskippable" flag, I wonder if the other tools "rebuild" the menu |
| 21 |
structure and remove it that way. I have in the past played with making dvd- |
| 22 |
menus myself and it wasn't too hard. (following the howtos) |

Thanks in advance, |
