Version 0.1.8 (2004-01-13)
Thumbnail creation is now multithreaded.
A few minor bugs were fixed.

Bug fixing...bug fixing...bug fixing...
More than one movie can now be inserted in a folder, movies cannot be thumbnailed...
Watch for 'do nothing' menu types as the node before does not skip over it but returns to its menu. I'll fix that later.
Version 0.1.6 (2003-10-17)
Movies can now be added to the tree. Insert them like you would insert pictures. When set to play 'infinite', a movie will play until the end. If not, it will play for the number of seconds indicated.
Added ability to rename tree elements such as pictures, menus and movies. To change the default name in the tree, right click on the element and select 'rename'.
Ccdtovcd now supports image file formats other than gif, png and jpeg using the imageio plugin interface. See http://www.geocities.com/marcoschmidt.geo/java-image-coding.html to locate plug-ins.
Tips & tricks #1: when editing a picture, right click in the picture to change the location of the text.
Tips & tricks #2: when editing a picture, use your mouse wheel to change the size of the text.

I am now unemployed!!! If you know of a position requiring Java-swing, Lotus Notes or ASP/HTML then let me know, Thanks.
Version 0.1.5 (2003-8-18)
Enhanced ability to change image properties. Select one or more images/menus, right click and select "Quick Changes". This allows to, for example, set all images/menus to "High Resolution".
Version 0.1.4 (2003-7-18)
MPEG-1 encoding is now performed by Ccdtovcd. There is therefore no need for the MJPEG tools anymore. VCDImager is still required. This also means that Ccdtovcd can now run under Windows.
Various bugs fixed including inability to create automatic menus and cdrdao output invisible
Version 0.1.3 (2003-5-25)
PPMScale and PPMNTSC programs no longer needed for encoding
Various bugs fixed

Use monospaced font in generated xml on screen
