Add menu creation to Blu-ray discs.

[poldon]

It seems that menu creation on Blu-ray discs isn't very easy, but it would be great to have the ability to at least have a simple menu where I could just choose from the separate videos on my regular Blu-ray player. I'm guessing AVCHD may be a good option also, but I don't see a way in txMuxeR to specify that the input videos are not different tracks of the same program.

All I'm looking for is a way to transfer several HD home videos to Blu-ray and not have to skip chapters to get to each video. Thanks for all your hard work you've been putting into this!

I would also appreciate menu creation support, because it's very hard to do. The best option at this time seems to be DVDFab Blu-ray Creator, but it's very limited even with custom tweaks.

I checked it out and found that it was more useless than Leawo Blu-ray Creator. Even more limited utility. However, I found out that Ashampoo Burning Studio seems to fill this need for me.
