I'm sure this question has been asked before, but having recently discovered that my player (Toshiba SD220E) only properly supports standard VCD resolution, I'm hoping there's a way to get quality close to what higher resolutions would offer with filters, max bitrates, etc.

I can play 704x480 muxed as SVCD but the audio a few seconds out of sync whenever I fast forward or rewind...is there a way to fix this?

Should I use SKVCD instead but change the resolution to 480x480?

Thanks for any help.

I also own a Toshiba SD220E. Only difference is that mine is a PAL version because I live in germany. Tests I've done results in the following working combos:
352x288 MPEG-1 muxed and burned as non-standard video cd
480x576 MPEG-1 muxed and burned as super video cd
480x576 MPEG-2 muxed and burned as super video cd

I've not tested 704x576 with any real movie yet and don't know if these combos will work on the NTSC player.

I live in the UK but my Toshiba SD220E is multiregion. Anyway, I found out at dvdrhelp.com that this player seems to have problems with keeping SVCDs in sync, and I also found a workaround . So now I can encode at 352x240/288, 480x480/576 and 704x480/576. Thanks for your replies .

Until now, I don't have any sync problems using one of the described encoding formats. What is the workaround you've found? Sometime ago I read that pressing the angle button on the remote control twice resyncs the video and audio...

Send a message via MSN to CheronAph
Is that for Toshiba only or for all DVD players?

Toshiba SD220E only as far as I know, but you can try it with others and see if it works.
