I'm working with a band, mastering their CD, and (Through some help on this forum) am Able to successfully Author a Multi-Session Blue Book CD, that I've tested in several CD players old and new, that read as a 14 Track Audio CD - As well, when placed in a computer, the 2nd session, shows up as a separate Data CD with the Video Files they wish to include.
This is really about as far as I want to take making the PreMaster however I am curious (Perhaps even some recommendations of companies or individuals), about the design and possibilities of the "Data Portion" of the Enhanced CD.
Ideally, the band would like some kind of "Auto Run Splash Screen" Like a DVD menu, Nice Picture Backdrop of the band, with a few options "Watch Bonus Video" - :listen to the CD - Visit our website - join our Fan Club etc.....
Obviously something that ran on Mac and PC, it'd be great to hook up with a company or individual that does "This side" of Enhanced CD's and could even send me the "Data Session" as an Image -
Be nice, in the future to "Have a guy", by default to send this kind of work to, as most Labels have thus stuff "In House", when these Indie acts want this stuff done... I'd like to know how to get it done for them, as it's becoming more and more common,

I'm not Hiding my identity, I've been posting on Audio forums (new to here) for over a decade as KingFish - and my PERSONAL website is posted in my Profile, in fact, take out the www. and the .com and That, IS my Last name - I hope that is enough to appease the policy, I made the mistake early on the internet, of using my 1st and last name in Profile "Name fields" and in signatures of posts... and every conversation I had (And I have a lot) was being indexed (And still there after 10 years) by most search engines. Now, after a careful 10 years of not using my name in these places, but still letting people "Know who I am", Search engines also pull up Discographies, Photos, Videos, Websites related to me... not 20,000 conversations about Gear, as I talk a lot
Again, I'm not "Challenging" the policy... just hopefully providing enough of a "Workaround" to prove that I'm not a "Troll, Hiding my identity"
If you click on my Website, you'll see exactly who I am, and if you search the DUC for "Kingfish" you'll see a couple of thousand posts, all constructive contributions.
