For encoding time nothing is even going to come close to CCE. It is at least twice as fast as most other mpeg2 encoders. As for quality, most people agree that CCE and TMPGenc are the two best encoders and you can use either in DVD2SVCD. Personally I think CCE has the edge but you really need to test them both out and see for yourself.

What exactly is the problem you are having with bitrate? Have you read the DVD2SVCD faq yet? Most questions regarding the program can be answered there.
