I've seen that same 10.08Mbps maximum upper limit for DVD's as well. My understanding was that to properly comply with the DVD consortium's rules, a player had be able to sustain that level of read speed from the DVD platter no matter what. In any case, I've been encoding mpeg2 files for DVD mastering using mpeg2enc and a -b value of 9576 for about a year to year and a half now, and so far my very small set of various hardware players have not shown any problems from files encoded with that bit rate ceiling. Your mileage may vary of course, but all I can say is that value works for me. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
