xvid to mpeg 2

[DSLGuy]

hi guys i'm trying to make a episode dvd disc. when i convert the xvid to mpeg 2 the first two episodes play fine but when i get to the third episode the video becomes jumpy .. What i did was joined four xvids in virtual dub but i had problem when joining the third xvid with the first two xvids.. I got an error stating the framerates where not the same.. when i checked it with gspot they both have the same framerate.. So that lefted me puzzled.. so came on here and someone suggested i use AVIMaster to fix the frame rate and it seemed to work, because when i tried to join the third xid with the first two it seemed to work. So I convert the xvid to mpeg 2 with cce sp and thats when i notice the video become jumpy when i got to the third episode

I wouldn't join as it often cause bugs. Instead convert each epsiode and then add all mpgs in the authoring tool.

how do i go about calculating the video bitrate of each xvid cuz i want to fit 4 episodes on a dvd-5 disk
