What is the best template for MPEG2 (SVCD) for TMPGEnc?
I have heard about this SKVCD?
Is this svcd or vcd also I could not find it on kwag's site.
Well I am looking for the best quality on 1 80 min CDR or 2 80 Min CDR
Please let me know what you think has the best quality. Also provide a link to download.
Thanks

I just use the templates that come with tmpgenc and it's fine. I've played with a couple others, but I don't see any significant difference. The bitrate and source material tend to be vastly more important than the template you use.
SKVCD is kwag's take on SVCD, I think it might even fall within the constraints of the SVCD standard (unlike KVCD). When I last looked it wasn't very prominent on his site - kwag concentrates on CQ-VBR MPEG-1 (XVCD) encoding. When I tried it I saw no reason to use it over the standard templates, but you should try it and form your own opinion. -
kwag already told you where to find it.

I would like to know how it performs on MPEG-2. I've only tested these changes on MPEG-1. With those changes, you should be able to fit just about any ~2 hour movie on one CD with better quality than a SVCD using "Standard SVCD" templates. Be sure to use it with file prediction method and at least SansGrip's FluxSmooth filter. If you want more advanced filtering for DCT block reduction, use Blockbuster filter ("noise" method" ).

I had a chance to try an encode, around 90 minutes on a CD. The quality was decent, especially considering how low the bitrate was. At the same time, though, it still looked like a low-bitrate encode. In a lot of places there was noise around edges (especially noticable with two-line subtitles), and motion sometimes had a slightly flickery or jerky look. The source was 29.97fps from a DVD, filtered with fluxsmooth(). I encoded with CQ=70, 300-1800k, high quality. If I weren't so lazy I might play with the filtering some because I think it smoothed too much.
