“Do a few tests at various bit rates. VBR will take longer than CBR, so if the size of the encoded file is not an issue use CBR. If you’re trying to squeeze as much possible on a DVD use VBR. Try bitrates of 5,6,7 and 8 to see what the lowest bitrate you can use while still outputting acceptable video”
Should I then burn each test individually to a DVD to view it, or is there a simpler way of comparing my results?
