I will add that - but i'm not sure how to make it really configurable - too 
many special cases i think :-) You could take a look in the "choosemedia" 
function in 2divx script !
Simply remove the if $SRCAC3 case - then the script will automatically create 
2 CD version, if the bitrate drops too low ! You should also change the 
Minimum Bitrate Value from 750 to 850 or something ...

Question: Why do you need PVAs ?? I used it myself, but now since dropping 
PVAstruemnto i converted around 40 VDR recordings (from 10 Minutes to 3 
hours) and all were excellent a/v sync - and this without PVAs! Even Stream 
error didn't harm mencoder !
So i wonder why you need PVAstruemento ...!?

> everything shpuld be configurable by command line options :-)
Yeah, that's what i'm afraid of :-)
Okay, i guess i have to write a command line parser - and external config 
files to be parsed... Not so much fun :-/ But should not be too hard, i just 
have some ideas ...
