SVCD is a bit different to VCD in that you choose the bitrate, so you choose how much to fit on to the CD. Generally you can fit about 35-60 mins on a standard SVCD.
There are other slightly different formats like XSVCD which will enable you to fit more, but their compatibility with DVD players can be pretty limited
well on tmpgenc I set it so I can go about 1864 bitrate for vcd movies so choosing the bitrate aint a problem
you can have as much minutes as you like but anymore then 50 minutes quality starts to drop
I think TMPGEnc says that 50 minutes is optimal for a 650 Mb disc, so more on a 700 Mb disc. I use 800 Mb discs often, so more again.
Has anyone got a free, useful SVCD bitrate calculator ?
Next, what about an alternative to TMPGEnc ? It keeps giving me trouble <_<
yeah TMPGEnc can be a pain in the ass at times
Panasonic Encoder is another good one
I forgot to answer that in my first post..Quote:

Anyway, I have successfully burnt a full movie to SVCD (Blood - The Last Vampire) which was great quality. It was only about 45 minutes long though IIRC.
I tried a few others that were closer to two hours, and they were absolutely shocking !
I'm looking for the panasonic encoder.... If anyone has a free link... email me ;)
U should try skvcd u can fit up to 120mins on one disc with near dvd quality. The Panasonic encoder is on kazaa as well.
Standard svcd with the bitrate its suposed to have 25XX around 35 minutes
Havent made one myself.Never fancied spanning a movie across three cdrs & then tring watch it. :)
