This seems overly complicated. Given you’re already depending on FFmpeg,
you can use it to produce the whole menu:

    ffmpeg -loop_input -t 1.0 -i pal.jpg \
        -ar 48000 -f s16le -i <(dd if=/dev/zero bs=96000 count=1) \
        -target pal-dvd menu.mpg

Or even simpler, using my slidify script <http://github.com/ldo/slidify>:

    slidify --magicksrc=xc:black menu.mpg

As for your crashes, it looks like you’re using the command-line
options in some inconsistent way that dvdauthor isn’t checking for.
Frankly, I’m not sure I have much enthusiasm for maintaining all those
menu- and title-building command-line options anyway; I prefer to use
the XML file. Any reason you can’t do the same?
