    I've made vcd's before that are 1800 Kbps but they seem to stutter and skip a lot on most dvd players.I know most vcd's do this if you go past 1750 kbps. My question is if you got a vcd that is pixelated and you re-encode it to a higher bitrate but leave the resolution the same and authored it as a dvd, would it refuse to play?

    You can never improve a bad source by reencoding (even if some filter magic may improve matters a little) - no matter what bitrate you use, or what media you put it on.
    VCD has a max bitrate of 1150 kbps - above that, it's not VCD.
    Max mpeg1 bitrate for DVD is 1856 kbps.
