Ok, so you know the size of your borders. Since the source is 720x480, this means that what FitCD calls the "film pixel" (which really means "frame size without borders") should be set to

Distant objects usually are blurry at that resolution, even with standard VCDs. But it sounds to me like you need to try to raise the CQ_VBR as much as possible. Try smoothing more and adding less...

From what I can gather from that Dolby document, they also differ in that ProLogic needs to be specially encoded, whereas ProLogic II doesn't. They must have some damn clever people there.

Ok, just encoded my first ProLogic II soundtrack (American Pie), and used the same CBR so of course it won't mess up my file size. Now I need to mux it and make an image and burn it and try it ;).

I might be wrong but I assumed they were the same thing. 3 front channels, 2 rear. The only difference is that a 5.1 has a separate sub-woofer channel.

Ok. I usually pull off just the 2-channel version if there is one, since it's smaller. But if the ProLogic II information is only in the 5.1 version then I'll make sure to get that. Maybe it's time...

And then just encode as mp2?

Does this only work for AC3 sources? Do all AC3 sources contain ProLogic II information, or just some? If just some, how can I tell which do and which don't? Do I need...

It would be useful, but I'm guessing it would be quite hard to determine borders automatically. It sounds easy but I don't think it would be :).
