MPEG2-encoding is much slower with bbmpeg than encoding to divx,
especially on higher bitrates. In Version 0.3.1 I reduced the max.
bitrate to 5000 kBits/s but that doesn't speed it up much. It just
helps getting more than 100 min. to a DVD.

If your player can replay other H-res than 480,704 and 720 you don't
have to transcode the stream. Yes -c should do that, ... but
unfortunately it does not ....
I'll upload a new version fixed this.

You mean your raw vdr-recordings are out of sync? Or after vdr2dvd.pl.
