Ccdtovcd 0.1.9

Ccdtovcd allows the creation of a digital photo album stored on a cd using the VCD or SVCD format that can be viewed on a salon DVD player. Stunning quality pictures can be created using high resolution mpeg stills (704x576).
Ccdtovcd is unique amoung the digital photo album creation tools as it produces a fully navigational tree-like sequence of independent MPEG still images, rather than a long movie of changing pictures.
Ccdtovcd provides an easy-to-use java-based (swing) graphical user interface that steps through the process of creating a digital photo album, from gathering pictures to burning a cd. It relies on various freely available products to perform some operations that would otherwise be time consuming to implement.
Main features:
- collect digital pictures (jpg,gif,png) and build a tree-like view of a photo album. In this paradigm, folders are menus and leaves are pictures
- perform basic operations on pictures such as trim, crop, rotate and add anti-aliased text
- encode pictures to MPEG-1 (for VCDs).
- generate an XML stream that can be used by VCDImager
- interface with VCDImager to produce a burnable file
- interface with CDRDAO to burn the file created by VCDImager
