i have encoded a film which is 2hrs 4 mins long and whether i do vcd or svcd it uses 3 discs with only 250mb on the third disc.

If it's gotta use 3 discs then i'd like to have a better average bitrate
and use say 40 mins of each disc.

If i increase the minimum and average bitrate would this do it and if i did this would the sound then go out of synch 'cos the video has been stretched.

Please help someone
