Look around for FitCD (google). It enables you to create these kind of scripts.

It is much simpler then you think, first your movie is full screen so in the resize portion of the script use 480x480
Here is my basic script for svcd:

Let's assume your file is in c:\movie\movie.avi
That you want to cut it at frame 99999
And for sake of argument that it is 576x240 and NTSC


AVISource("c:\movie\movie.avi",False)
trim(0,999999)
BicubicResize(480,272,0.0,0.75)
AddBorders(0,104,0,104)
convertToYUY2()

How we got those value:
v=vertical resolution
h= horizontal resolution

720/h*v/1.1=x
Then you use x as your second value in the resize line

Now 480-x/2=y
Use y as both values in the borders line, that's that all that is to it. This is true for NTSC for pal tiny bit deferent let me know if you need that.
