There is none so far. I made a script, thanks to paranouei.

./sexpat-ksvcd 28days-mpeg ~/Movies/28_Days_Later.avi 620
which then spitted out a file
Code:
28days-mpeg00.mpg
and the cue/bin-files.

The movie I tested this with, is 1h 48min long, fits on a single CD (80min).
This is incredible, fast encoding (less than 3 hours) and really good picture quality, and works like a charm on my standalone DVD-player!

You can edit ASPECT variable just after a dash line.
#ASPECT="1.0000" # 1:1
ASPECT="1.3333" # 4:3
#ASPECT="1.7777" # 16:9
Note, that this variable does not scale output itself, it just tells
subsequent software scaler how to scale and also stores aspect flag for mplayer in mpeg file.
In order to do correct scaling with preserved aspect ratio for your DVD player, you have to take into account resolution
after scaling:
"The script is capable to scale into NTSC/PAL dimensions if the source is fit - width is used as a base to scale, so scaled height have to be within allowed height for NTSC or PAL."
Depends on your source and output resolution (variables WID and HEI you choose), the script adds black bands.
Ideally, you don't have them at all and still have original aspect ratio, but it is not always possible.
(standard resolutions -
VCD: 352*288 PAL, 352*240 NTSC
SVCD: 480*576 PAL, 480*480 NTSC.
Note that pixels on TV set are not square!)
Quality of final CD also depends on chosen bitrate, you put it in command line, so higher resolutions mean lower bitrates to fit CD that's why XVCD can be better qulity than SVCD because of higher bitrates.

Damnit, watched the movie last night...it's only 100minutes long. Seems like vcdimager does this automatically:

Anyone know how to fix this....?

--broken-svcd-mode enable non-compliant compatibility
mode for broken devices

--update-scan-offsets update scan data offsets in video
mpeg2 stream

Try --update-scan-offsets option in vcdimager.
Radical solution is to split mpeg file, and then run
vcdimager [options] first.mpg second.mpg

Thanks for the quick reply.

Noticed one really weird thing. If I play it on my standalone DVD-player, it stops there at 100 minutes. If I play it on my computer with MPlayer, I'm able to see full movie length.

I'll try the options you posted and will tell what happened.

I have removed ASPECT variable from the script - to simplify and to avoid some confusion between aspect width/height and viewable aspect on TV or monitor.
The script now just preserve original aspect, and if you want to change aspect view on your monitor, use -aspect option from mplayer or other in your software player.
