NAME

       mk_vmgm — automated creation of titleset menus of the DVD (VTSM)

SYNOPSIS

       mk_vtsm [options] image-file(s)

DESCRIPTION

       DVDwizard  is  a  wrapper-script  which  incorporates  a fully automated creation of a DVD-structure with
       chapters and menus from one or more mpeg-streams. This is  done  by  several  "sub-scripts"  and  various
       freely available tools.

       One  of  these sub-scripts is mk_vtsm, which create one or more titleset menus (VTSM) for authoring a DVD
       with dvdauthor.
