You probably won't be able to build an SVCD for 90 minutes with acceptable 
video quality.   The Data-rate would fall below the ranges for which MPEG-2 
works well.   To achieve it: set the Data-rate low enough.   You'd need 
around 1300Kbps total to fit it onto an 80-minute CD-R blank.

No idea how high you'd want to set base quantisation but I'd suspect at least 
12.
