Which XSVCD resolutions do you prefer?

My current favorite is PAL/NTSC 352x576/480 with 48 kHz audio. As a legal DVD resolution and audio it _should_ be easily transferred and concatenated to DVDs later.

720x576/480 is also a legal DVD resolution but at 2500 kb/s it tends easily get blocky in moving scenes.

I have also had good success with 704x576/480 which is also a legal DVD resolution.

AFAIK 704x576/480 may be a good choice for originally analog sources (analog-to-DV capture from a TV-tuner, for example) because the original analog active image width is PAL 702 or NTSC 711 and the 704 XSVCD width crops the unnecessary black borders from the 720 width DV image.

DV footage from my D8 camcorder fills horizontally all the 720 width so I have cropped to 704 from analog sources only where there are black borders on the sides anyway.

My Pioneer 444 DVD player plays all those resolutions and audio without hiccups as long as the bitrate is lower than about 2500000 b/s.
