---------- Footnotes ----------
(1) the core of the GNU VCDImager package consists of a private
library named 'libvcd' and public library named 'libvcdinfo', the
front-ends are just user interfaces to the exported C-API
(2) based on the IEC-62107 specification with some extensions defined
in the super-set SVCD System Specification 1.0. Some support for the
_deprecated_ Chinese SVCD format is available through option switches.
(3) ...though most devices will have problems with such an
out-of-specification media. You may want use the '--sector-2336' option
for images longer than 80 minutes
