General Question on Resolution KVCDx2 Plus

[jbirdg]

Sorry if this is answered somewhere else in the forume. I have done a search and could not find the answer.
Why does KVCDx2 PLUS use 704x480 instead of 720x480?
I know 704x480 is the standard for xvcd but why?
If my DVD player plays the KVCDx2 PLUS test vid off the test CD will it play a vcd at 720x480? What will I loose or gain with 720x480?

I ask these questions because I know the great minds out there (like kwag and the others) have the answers.

Thanks for the great work!

Nearly the same visual quality and less bits to encode than 720*480. That so simple.
