i like quality, i use CVD put never put more than 1 hr onto a 80 min disk, so usually 2 discs, accasionally 3! I also have audio at 48Khz so, if i ever get a dvd burner they will be nice & easy to convert!
1)Why Not Overclock a little?! speed 4 free!!!!
2) If your question has anything to do with copying PS2/PC/XBox games, find a more appropriate website -
i could vote for all. sometimes i fit a movie on one disc, sometimes i'd rather have a couple of discs (especially after just finding out my dvd player can play 720x480 8000 kb/s), and sometimes i get horrible results.

Well I go for one disk, but if the running time is somewhere over about say 2 and ahalf to 2hours and 45min I will put on 2 disk. Anything over about 2 hours and 15 min gets bumped up to a bunch of passes to ensure it doesn't look like crud.

Normaly I go for quality as I am not in the habit of backups but instead record masters for posterity. Sometimes its handy to have both a DVD and VCD of the same programme. Most improtant thing is that it MUST be compatible with existing standards - this is the main reason why I wouldn't go for the KVCD standard, even though it does give more bang for the buck.

As far as quality is concerned, I think we've pretty much blown everything in existance away with the latest "Dynamic Adaptive Filtering ( http://www.kvcd.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3999 ), because now you get this: http://www.kvcd.net/704x480-showoff.mpg on one CD, and I think that speaks for itself
So my choice for this poll is "I Fit My Movies On 1 Disk", but with the quality of the above sample

Dude, man. That sample looked very sweet. So you're able to fit an entire movie on a CD-R, with those dimentions, and looking like that? Any Mac templates or programs on the way??? *holds breath*

I haven't played too much with ffmpeg (ffmpegX), but it would be a matter of patching (recompiling ffmpeg?) the KVCD qualtization matrix into ffmpeg, and the longer GOP that we use. However, don't expect that quality with ffmpeg, mainly because there's no AviSynth for Mac (yet!), so all the filtering techniques we use can't be applied. Hopefully all of that will change in the near future, with more support programs for Mac OS X (which I love, btw ).

The point is to see the usefulness of both.
Standards are what allow every DVD you buy play on your DVD player. Innovation is all well and good but having something that is guaranteed to WORK is sometimes more important. This was energy80s point of view and a very valid one.
Your post of "Maybe you should try again the latest developments
There are workarounds now to allow playback on almost any player" is inappropriate in this context and completely irrelevant.
I take it from your last facaetious post that rational debate is no longer possible in this thread...

well hey even "regular"/limited XVCDs (2x or even 1x max vbr or nonstandard bitrate) dont work on all DVD players, and some don't even accept VCDs, SVCDs, CVDs... why don'tcha go bitch about that
(still waiting to find some way to get anything other than 352 x low MPG1 and 480 x high MPG2 to work on mine, oh well)
Personal: "I make my movies fit 1 disc"... but they're quality 1-discs, made with love Don't just set aside 224kbits for audio whipped together without any extra filtering in TMPGEnc and divide the rest of the leftover MBs into the film length for the automatic 2-pass to chew over.
Mind you that does mean my latest DVD rip has been sitting on my HD for a good couple of weeks whilst trying to iron out the final problems/do tweaks, despite the early good-enough prototypes already on CD and looking quite dusty.... (mainly just new codec tests & things really, but there is a maddening distortion that comes when trying to remove the obscene level of noise out of the chinese soundtrack.. suppose there's just not enough signal left over for it to work right)
Though I haven't yet tested that video clip, just hearing about this and reading some of the comments / that other thread made me think both "cool!" and "no f**in way". This is a sort of thing that has been waiting a long time, even if I couldn't think of a name for it before. Those noisy backgrounds needed a nice even time-smooth, but whenever that was applied, the motion started to look ugly, so the "flickery" backgrounds and their wasted bandwidth just had to be lumped in the name of clean motion. Rock and roll.
Now, please, we just need some clever and benevolent programmer to work this into a VDub (+frameservable) plug-in to avoid all that heavy heavy looking AviSynth stuff!-= She sez there's ants in the carpet, dirty little monsters! =-
Back after a long time away, mainly because I now need to start making up vidcapped DVDRs for work and I haven't a clue where to start any more! -
no more than 4. my svcd of the lord of the rings is maximum. i just bought a 10 pack so i had enough for both 'Rings movies and empire strikes back
