That's the thing. Vcdimager does not complain about the video that ffmpeg produces. It is not until I put it into my DVD player that I find it doesn't work. When I say it's not VCD compliant I mean that from what I can tell is sets the audio bitrate too low (something like 64 instead of 224). It also does not change the videos width and height from the original, and I know the VCD standard is quite picky about that. The problem is that I am not familiar enough with VCD standards or ffmpeg to know exactly what to do. Although I have been doing lots of research. Jesse
