DivX Converter

Everyone wants a menu... Now that DivX Author has launched, its all the rage. Well, the Converter team, not wanting to miss out on a good thing, also integrated menu creation into their product, following Converters philosophy of "Easy to use".
This beta version of DivX Converter can auto generate a menu based on a VOB file input. So those of you who are creating home DVDs with other applications can take those files and convert them to DivX with menus. DivX is working on enabling menus in other file formats for the full release, but thought friends at DivX Labs might want to play with an early version
