KVCD: X2 or x3? should I even bother lowering the quality?
 
Ok, I'm frameserving my video from virtualdub sync and my goal is to get 90 minutes onto one cd-r (duh). My DVD player only can read mpeg-1 @ 352x240 (properly w/o lines going all over the place).

With the 528x480 x3 template I tried a few tests (after I lower the resolution to 352x240), but it looks like I have to lower the quality setting down to 8 to accomplish 90 minutes onto a CD. The quality ends up looking 'ok'.

So my question is should I even bother lowering the quality that low or should I just stick to one of the other x2 templates and will I possibly experience better quality that route?

BTW-The video I'm encoding is from a TV Capture card (Visiontek Xtacy Everything 5564) if that helps any.

Thanks in advance!
