I am looking for an application that will let me build a multimedia front
end for a CD I am making. It is an educational CD for University students
studying architecture and will contain zipped freeware programs to be
installed.

I want to be able to make a menu, with install instructions, screenshots,
sounds etc, for the CD that will autoplay and will be easy to use, as not
all the students are 100% computer literate.

In other words a graphical front end for a CD.

( I have made one in HTML but I would prefer to be able to make an
executable)

MediaMenu 1.40

This program is a highly customizable full-screen menu, designed to
present the media contents (MP3, video,...) stored in a CD or other
media. The menu is configured via a standard .INI file (no
configuration interface available yet). Some of its features are:

Customizable number of items, each of them can play a file (using a
custom player), show a submenu (album), show a text with an internal
viewer, launch an external program or launch and hyperlink (using
the system default navigator).

Customizable items: You can choose font size, type, outline, color
and bullet images. It can temporally install a TTF font and use it
in the menu texts.

Customizable background: Solid color or image. Supported image types
are .JPG and .BMP. The background image con be centered, stretched
to screen size, or in mosaic style.

The fonts, colors and images are configurable in each submenu
(album). You may select a player for each album.

Option of play a background sound. Supported sound types are .WAV,
..MID and .RMI. The .WAV file can be compressed (e.g. with MP3).
