first of all, let me say I love the program.

I am just having a lot of trouble finding information on the following topics on the internet (yes, I have searched google, doom9, digital-digest, afterdawn etc).

1. I am making a svcd that has 16:9 aspect ratio, but encoded as 4:3 (with borders added). I want subtitles. what y-pos do I set the subtitles to so that they are in the bottom border?

2. I am having trouble configuring a svcd with 2 audio tracks (1 is the main, 2 is a commentary). In order to have the svcd set to the svcd specification, audio 2 has to be set to a birtate of 32 kbps! Is there any way to get an increased rate?

how about if I ignore the warning that total birtate is more than the specification? I know that the disc may not play on all dvd players, and I don't want this.

3. can you set dvd2svcd so that a disc-change occurs at a chapter-change?

thanks
Andrew

Do you know there is a fantastic search button?

yes I know there is a search function - I tried to use it. I searched but wasn't too sure what exactly I was looking for, and in which forums...

thanks for your help.

Don't worry. I'm glad to be useful. :)
The advice is to promote the use of search "in general". It's great.
