Hello everybody,

after upgrading from D2S 107 b4 to D2S 108 b1 all my problems with the last missing seconds on Disc 1 had gone. (Thanx DVD2SVCD)

Because I always encode SVCD's with two audiotracks AND one selectable subtitle, I encountered problems with my SEG DVD Player which is a Yamakawa Clone. The pictures showed blocky artifacts and the movie sometimes stopped for a few seconds. The Pioneer Player of my pal played it all correctly so I managed to find out that the bitrate of 2850 was too high for my SEG. I am using 160 kbs for both the Audio tracks. In the bitrate tap I did put 2400 as the maximum value and also tried to balance the max average value down to 2150. My thought was, that if I decrease the max, I must also decrease the average about half of the value. Could anyone please explain if there is a relation between these two values that leed to problems in Quality or so ?

Anyway, since this reduction, my SVCD's are having again the problem of the missing seconds of Disk 1. I have two say that I always r*p in two steps with the original chapters as cut points. The start of the new chapter on Disc 2 is allright but on Disk 1 up to 6 seconds are missing.

I would appreciate if someone could help me with this

If you decrease the max you can leave the avg as it is (Ok, it makes no sense to have higher avg than max)
There is a gues that max shouls be at least 120 higher than avg, to avoid CCE hanging, but this is not proven.
