I was just surprised that an ancient, low-tech program like dd is all it
takes to do a modern, high-tech action like burning a DVD.  Given how
much hassle cdrecord goes through just to burn a CD, it just seemed
really counterintuitive. :-)

I don't understand.  The -S option of mpeg2enc doesn't actually seem to
produce separate files, just sequence-end marks; from my experience,
only mplex actually splits videos into separate files.  Also, I
deactivated the -M switch: the standard 1.6.0 sources set
opt_multifile_segment to true for the DVD format; this is in
OutputStream::InitSyntaxParameters(), in multplex.cc.

I'm sorry for being so clueless; I really *am* trying to understand all
this. :-)

But if I drop the -b option, I'll get 7500 kbps, and then the video
won't fit onto the DVD.  Also, you really think I need to use the
denoiser on a high-quality S-Video source like a LaserDisc?
