    When I encode certain xvid films and I tell it to auto adjust to dvd-5 it sometimes outputs a video about 4.7gb in size, any reason why it might do this?

    4.7 is the max a dvdr can hold.
    so svcd2dvd makes the most of the space on the dvdr.

    The old 1000 vs 1024 thing so you are both right...

    Comrinec: This can happen when the encoder overestimates the bitrate. With the latest version of S2D you can have DVDShrink shrink your DVD back to DVD-5 automatically if this happens.
    SVCD2DVD v2.5, AVI/MPEG/HDTV/AviSynth/h264->DVD, PAL->NTSC conversion.
