[VCDImager] mux problem

[Edson Reis]

Hi all,

I'm using vcdimager to built vcd's and svcd's successfully after some 
trials, but i still have one obscure point:

Afert converting files captured on my dv camera (movies and pitures 
converted to movies), edited and
converted to mpeg 1 or 2 (for vcd's or svcd's), using the (i suppose) 
right bitrate on them, then i have a problem:

- If i use mplex to join audio and video, the vcd (or svcd) generated by 
vcdimager does not plays correctlly on
 some standalone DVD's player;

- If i use tcmplex to join audio and video, everthing is fine, even if 
the bitrate is higher and a bit above the
 vcd (or svcd) specification!

To do this tests i've tryed the "worst" players i could get, asking for 
friends to try to play my medias.

I'm writing this to try to find someone that knows:

- what are the real specification for an vcd (or svcd) and;
- how to test it - i just play it using xine (actually gxine) and read 
the botom line or, reading file caracteristics
  written during multiplexing by tcmplex and mplex (my script generates 
both);

I know this is not an vcdimager problem, but i think i affects it's users...

Thanks to anyone that could help.

Edson.
