VCD Menu Lite is a free Video CD/DVD menu and title page generation program for Windows. We can add this utility to our video toolkit and quickly produce simple but attractive menus as front-ends for our VCD/SVCD/DVD movie and slideshow presentations. It is very simple and all we need to do is pick our colors, type in titles and menu captions, grab the frames from our movie clips, then export to a JPG image. Use a VCD/DVD authoring program to convert our menu image into an MPEG still.

CIS Smart CD-Menu Creator provides an easy to use interface that allows us to design a simple CD menu dialog, that will automatically start when the CD is inserted. The dialog offers 4 customizable buttons that can launch a document or executable. We can further customize the interface with background images or color, and also add our own logo and custom CD icons. The program saves the complete set of files including autorun.inf, ready to be burned to CD.

MediaMenu is a customizable full-screen CD menu with an built in image viewer and launcher for Windows Media player. It allows us to create an attractive full screen menu for our CD that links to the CD content, launches applications and even web site links. We can play background music and link to sub-level of the menu containing file listings etc. The program is completely configured via an .ini file, which requires we to do some very basic scripting in order to customize it to our needs. With a little bit of work, MediaMenu allows us to create a very attractive interface for our CD.

AutoRun Architect enables us to create advanced AutoRun menus for CDs and DVDs that are to be launched on a computer. We can choose between quiet installations or launch menus that allow the user to install files or run programs and documents from the CD. The program can also install included viewers (if no viewer is found for a specified file type), read registry values, pass parameters to executables, display a splash screen, license agreement and more. AutoRun Architect can also implement password protected AutoRuns, that require the user to enter a username/password or authentication code in order to continue the CD launch, however this option does not protect the actual files on the CD, only the AutoRun menu. Overall, a very flexible tool to create simple as well as advanced CD/DVD launchers. Unfortunately it does not include any launcher templates or even graphical buttons that we can use, so the actual splash screen needs to be designed separately.

ArtixMedia Menu Studio is a multimedia CD creation tool that lets you create CD menus and shells. You can add images and sounds to create multimedia programs and link to other pages, external files and internet links. The program can also be used to create slideshows and media presentations. It includes themes and objects that you can use in your designs and you can also import your own image files that can be used as buttons , backgrounds etc. Additional features include support for embedded video player, shapes and more.
