Hi Thomas,

thank you for checking this for me.

I will try this new program "tosvcd-0.1" from Werner Schweer this weekend.
Maybe the results are better. I have already tried the procedure from Peter
Hoffmann but the resulting SVCDS had not that quality of TMPGenc and I don't
expect to much from tosvcd because its based on the same programs.
Especially when you have falling lines like furniture in a kitchen (dark
lines on light background) you always get disturbing shadows. So I decided
myself for this mixed way of Linux/W2k tools. But if you think that I miss
some sync infos after the decoding process I will try to remux the output
before burning with bbmpeg again. Maybe this helps.

Kind regards
Manfred
