Templates for SVCD

[buzzrock]

What templates offered in the tools section are the best for encoding MPEG2 files, I think I prefer SVCD, but my player also will play XVCD.

I know quality depends on each user, what one thinks is great others may view as not so great.

But Im looking for a decent template, that doesnt sacrifice too much loss in original quality, but doesnt need to be perfect. Also I dont mind using 2 cd's (80min cd) for a burn. But one cd with decent quality would be grand!

Just interested in what the more experienced users are using in respect to templates that are offered on this site.

BTW, I am speaking in terms of converting a DIVX movie into a MPEG2.

I would give Kwag's a try.

I don't like any of the templates, so I made my own for 2 disc SVCDs.

Basically:

2 pass VBR - min 1800 avg - 2350 max 2500 - motion - highest.
Audio 192kbps.

this will put a 90min movie on 2 discs with excellent quality.

Figure 6 hrs to encode on a XP1700 processor.
