Overall very nice, i really like the new wx interface.

vlc now requires vcdimager (libvcdinfo) 0.7.21, which is only available
from cvs. Do you know if there will be a release of that soon? If not,
would it be very hard to also support older versions, or support using a
libvcdinfo source tree directly?
