Use Nero.
High res pictures, and movies in a different track.

Not bad.

How about Ulead Video Studio? You can dump pics into the time line and create a video file. But I don't know how good is the res and the Picture will NOT be store in the VCD as picture format (eg. jpg or bmp). It just convert into mpeg video hence not good for backup but good for presentation on VCD.
If you using this software, I would suggest that u create a mpeg file for the photos you want to put in. And the Videos in another mpeg file. Lastly you use nero to burn the two files in to a VCD then u got 1 Track for Photos and 1 for Videos. Of course you can split the photos or video into more then 1 tracks each. Just create the mpeg file seprately. And every Mpeg file you drag to nero will become a track. Lastly u can create a menu page with nero (i think), to let viewer jump to certain track.
