DSPguru I am sure impressed

I haven't played a new SVCD created with the newer versions of BeSweet on my main Home Theater until today when I was testing an encode and man I have to say the audio quality is just awesome. The older versions were good, but the latest version sounds just as good as the AC3 track from the DVD.
I am very impressed and thank you so much for making such a great tool that works so well in the DVD2SVCD bundle. BeSweet is miles ahead of what DVD2SVCD use to use.

Thanks a bunch and great work.

thank you mark :D.
i'm also planning to enhance mpglib, to supply better quality for MPA inputs.

btw,
what's your fav. bitrate for audio ?

I use only 224 or 192 for audio bitrates. I always use 224 unless I feel that the difference in size is enough to push the video to better quality. Also the soundtrack of the movie makes me think as well. If it's a heavy speech low music low action drama I think 192 is fine, but if it's heavy music and high action then 224 it is no matter if the video will improve if I dropped the audio bitrate.
