Sure. I updated to Dec 9 nightly to do this.
VLC is started with: vlc -I telnet
mvpmc is started with: mvpmc -m ntsc --startup
filesystem:file=/home/brett/media --vlc brousse
In the mvpmc VLC menu options for video transcoding, DVD is selected.

Now, I change the VLC menu option to SVCD.
# cat /usr/share/mvpmc/connect.log

It looks like VLC is getting different canvas width/height as I would expect.
And the bit rate has definitely changed (it's quite noticeable on the TV).
That said, in terms of fitting the output on the TV, the resolution is the
same between the two options. I assume it's not supposed to?

Nope. I've never done it that way.
