HalfDVD (XSVCD) Time Error and CCSP/TMPEG Underflows

[Xesdeeni]

Having finally found a satisfactory format for my digital home movies (XSVCD, 352x480 converted to progressive from interlace, 3.5Mbps) I noticed that the time my DVD player thinks is on the CD doesn't match reality. In fact, it looks like it's calculated based on VCD, not even SVCD rate. When I'm playing the CD, the time is accurate, up until the end, when it reverts to the inflated time. I know this is minor, but is there a way around this?

And...I'm using Cinema Craft SP to encode, but I have heard the sound is bad, so I encode that separately. When I merge the streams in TMPEG, it complains of underflows and says the file may not play. It looks like it plays (but I haven't double-checked that it plays every single frame from beginning to end). Is there a way to fix this?

Better remux with bbmpeg
With tmpeg, use full remux (de - multiplexx), not the simply re-mux fuction (simply de - multiplexx)
It works for me...
About the resolution you use...
This is for PAl or NTSC?
352X480 seems NTSC. For Pal it is I thing 352X576
Or I get something wrong?
I start some tests with that CVD format, but ain't better than SVCD with Bitrate less than 2000....
