Does mencoder have a limit on the bitrate when generating MPEG2? The last couple of times I've tried to convert films from H264 to DVD using DeVeDe or entering a similar mencoder command line manually, I end up with a file of only 2-3GB instead of the >4GB I want. IIRC when I tried to increase the bitrate manually I got an error message saying it was too high or something, but it can't have been out of spec because most DVDs have a higher bitrate. -- TH * http://www.realh.co.uk
