A bit of a delay in feeding back, been busy:

Well as suggested by a few people the problem I had was with the overall bitrate
I was trying to mplex.  I should have realised this, but the 9.8 Mbit/sec
maximum (that is mentioned on the sizzle documentation pages
(http://thegoods.ath.cx/~hmason/sizzle/sizzle-howto.html) is a mplexed maximum,
not the separate video stream.  www.dvdrhelp.com lists dvd as having a video
bitrate of 3000-8000 kbps and audio as 128-384kbps, which I'm guessing adds up
to the 9800 kbps (Or maybe not).

So I re-encoded my video at 8000 kbps (took a day or so )and left my audio at
256 kbps.  This worked.  No problems at all with mplex or anything else.  

Burnt a DVD and tested it on my computer, worked fine, apart from towards the
end it would start to skip a bit.  Perhaps because it's still on the high side
of bitrate?  (If I do a DVD again, I think I'll go about lower than 8000 kbps to
be on the safe side) Checked on my friends dvd player, worked fine, but didn't
get a chance to check the end.  However, all was to no avail when it didn't work
on my girlfriends dvd player though so now trying SVCD, and if that doesn't
work, VCD.

Thanks for all the help, I've learnt a lot in a short time!
