XVCDs and the way they are read on DVD players

[Shannafey]

I used the tuturial for creating a vcd in TMPGenc that is longer than 80 min. I burned it in Nero using the standard vcd template on a 700mb cdr and it reads as the whole 93 min. in Windows Media Player, but when I put it in my Pioneer DV-333, it shows that it is only 78 min. I scanned to the end of the film, and it runs to the end credits. I haven't sat down and watched the film entirely yet, but did I possibly do something wrong in the burning phase, or do dvd players just base the time on the vcd standard. Can anyone give me any info?

Sorry for my bad english!

DVD's set the time based on the VCD-standard... if you increase the bitrate you will also increase the time on your dvd-player, but the file will still be as long as it's allways been. The dvdplayer clock will go faster than realtime according to your increased bitrate.
