See the document above. According to it, it's safe to use any bitrate you like when creating a DVD, as long as the total (A + V) bitrate does not exceed 10.08MBit/s. Hence my previous question about the maximum bitrate accepted by mpeg2enc. In your experience, what is the largest video bitrate that is safe to use when creating DVDs? "Safe" meaning "it can be played back by most standalone players except for very old or very buggy ones". The same document seems to suggest that most DVDs, in fact, use variable bitrate. In your experience, is it "safe" (same meaning as above) to use variable bitrate? VBR is automatically set when using -q, right? What becomes then the meaning of -b parameter? Does it become the _maximum_ bitrate? -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
