I think that yes, this is the correct answer.

Mplex is doing everething correct if you are multiplexing file as VCD/SVCD
MPEG and _not_ if you are multiplexing it as a generic mpeg1/mpeg2. Check
your -f setting. Also for VBR mpeg1 you'll need -V.
BTW, if the padding takes place vcdimager will warn you.
