Hi Stroller,

I also would like to have a copy of your perl-script for this. It would make 
my life a lot easier trying to convert my dvd-collection.

As for the "unskippable" flag, I wonder if the other tools "rebuild" the menu 
structure and remove it that way. I have in the past played with making dvd-
menus myself and it wasn't too hard. (following the howtos)

Thanks in advance,

Joost
