Abstract
A method for authoring a Video CD in an information handling system includes creating chapter breaks as a function of video footage imported from a source. A static menu is created as a function of the chapter breaks. The video footage is transcoded. Lastly, the transcoded video footage and the static menu are burned onto a Video CD storage medium, wherein the static menu is configured to enable random access of the transcoded video footage according to the chapter breaks during a video playback.

A method for authoring a Video CD in an information handling system, the method comprising:
- creating chapter breaks as a function of video footage imported from a source;
- creating a static menu as a function of the chapter breaks;
- transcoding the video footage;
- and
- burning the transcoded video footage and the static menu onto a Video CD storage medium, the static menu configured to enable random access of the transcoded video footage according to the chapter breaks during a video playback.
An information handling system for authoring a Video CD comprising:
- a processor for creating chapter breaks as a function of video footage imported from a source;
- a processor for creating a static menu as a function of the chapter breaks;
- a processor for transcoding the video footage;
- and
- a processor for burning the transcoded video footage and the static menu onto a Video CD storage medium, the static menu configured to enable random access of the transcoded video footage according to the chapter breaks during a video playback.
A computer program for authoring a Video CD, the computer program processable by an information handling system for causing the information handling system to:
- create chapter breaks as a function of video footage imported from a source;
- create a static menu as a function of the chapter breaks;
- transcode the video footage;
- and
- burn the transcoded video footage and the static menu onto a Video CD storage medium, the static menu configured to enable random access of the transcoded video footage according to the chapter breaks during a video playback.
