 __dvdunauthor__ performs the opposite task to <tt>dvdauthor</tt>: given the files making up a DVD-Video title, it separates out the individual menus and titles into separate MPEG files, and constructs an XML file that <tt>dvdauthor</tt> can use to put them together again. 
  
 __spuunmux__ similarly performs the opposite task to <tt>spumux</tt>: given an MPEG-2 file containing a subpicture or menu definition, it extracts the subpicture layer into separate [PNG] files, and creates an XML file that <tt>spumux</tt> can use to put them together again.

+<tt>dvdunauthor</tt> and <tt>spuunmux</tt> are very useful for trying to understand the structure of existing DVD-Video titles.  
  
 __qdvdauthor__ is a GUI-based tool to ease the job of DVD authoring. It can generate the XML files and command sequences necessary to drive the various command-line utilities in the <tt>dvdauthor</tt> suite. 
  
 <tt>qdvdauthor</tt> and the <tt>dvdauthor</tt> documentation examples make heavy use of the [MJPEG Tools|http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net/] package for generation of MPEG files and the like. However, I'm pretty sure all these operations can be performed just as readily with [FFmpeg].
