Test done! They DEFINITIVELY fixed the encoding problem
, but the user defined size is still ignored below ~1GB.
I set user defined size to 700MB, and then removed all audio tracks and subtitles. The result was two VOBs. One of 1,048,574KB, and another one of 378,930KB.
The quality is very good, considering the ~1.3GB, but never as good as KDVD at that size though
Next, I'll try the complete movie, with all menus, etc., and regular target of 4.3GB.
It looks that the problem of "falling" quality towards the end is totally fixed
