Hello all,

My parents own an SD2710, and I want to make them some VCDs/XVCDs(saw that there is no SVCD support). However, I am not sure what bitrate and size are supported. One hardware review for this model mentioned 352X288 (I think) as a maximum size that worked, whereas the XVCD spec goes up much higher. It was not clear to me if he had tested higher versions and they didn't work OR he had tested this level and it did work.

It wouldn't be very convenient to burn several test CDs, ship them to my parents (I'm in Germany, they are in Canada), and ask them to see which ones work best. By the time that the package got there, I'd probably be on the plane home already. :)

Does anyone have experience with this model and can specify maximum support sizes, the best quality combinations, or any things that I should watch out for? Is there PAL support for it (although, I suppose I could just burn everything as NTSC/NTSC film)?

Thanks in advance,
Shaun
