I was doing some testing with templates etc. to find the optimal Setting for Size and Quality. I noticed that If I did say 20 seconds of Blade In 480x480 SVCD in CQ with 24 fps Nero said it was 19.01 Seconds
480x288 with same CQ and FPS nero said 17.17 Seconds
and so on with VCD as well.

The funny thing is the playback is only weird in my DVD player, has flashing lines and so on, but on PC i can't notice anything wrong. ANyone else seen/dealt with this and found a fix? dropping SVCD from 480 to 288 in heigh really reduced the overall size.
