Yes, I have.
For PAL, 352 x 288 and 512 x 384 is some of the out-of-spec resolutions I've succeded with. The former in an attempt to fit an entire james bond movie on one cd, and the latter by plain forgetting to resize in my avs script after divx encoding my home DV.
Forget the comments of what mpeg2 is designed for, that's obviously not really true. Some encoders will have problems if x and y res aren't divisible by 8, though. A whole different matter is the SVCD spec. If you want absolute certainty that your (and every other scvd-able) stand-alone is gonna play it, stick to it.
I see you're an NTSC user and maybe there is a switch you've forgotten somewhere in your encoder telling it so. Or maybe it's the player that got it wrong. What does TmpgEnc, BBmpeg or Bitviewer say about the encoded result ... just load it up and see. Otherwise I don't see anything wrong in your approch.
cheers
