DVD2SVCD 2nd Disc Image is 3 MB too big......

[BryceOne]

First time this has happened... I ripped a DVD to 2 CDs using DVD2SVCD which I have used many times before.. This time the image is 3 MB too big to fit on CDR.. My question is... Will it work if I change the CD Size (under BITRATE settings) from 800 to something a little less like 790?
I don't want to use the 74 min option.

this usually only happens when i encode using a cbr or cq with tmpgenc and never with a multipass vbr or if i use cce

A blindingly obvious question but couldn't you just cut a few meg's off the end and keep the quality. If it's the second disc it'll only be end credits won't it?

You could if you desire to overburn the CDR. Most will accept a bit of overburn. My player will accept and play normally anything up to 819Mb. 820Mb and it chokes.
I do not recommend this approach but when you need those few extra Mb and do not want another disc or want to edit out stuff, give this a whirl.

I used CCE with multipass VBR.

Unfortunately, this is one of those older movies that just doesn't have any credits.

My burner doesn't overburn. It errors out towards the end.

I had EXACTLY the same problem with one of my rips.
I found the easy way to fix, which works most of the time, but not all.
Open TMPGEnc, File, MPEG Tools, and Simple Demux, then Remux, choosing the correct template (SVCD), and it seemed to work perfectly, by removing just a bit of the padding, and it will now fit on CDR.
Worth a try.
