You can change the max bitrate allowed by mplex with -r.<br><br>So adding something like -r 15000 might fix the mplex problem. However, this would likely result in an unplayable DVD. You might want to try writing a 'long play' DVD. This would make a copy of your input video at a relatively low bitrate.

Here are the choices:<br><br> 0 - Generic MPEG1. A simple general-purpose MPEG1 format primarily suitable for software decoders. Buffer sizes and VBR must be specified. Bit-rate can be auto-detected.
<br>1 - VCD. Standard VCD. Overrides other option settings.<br>2 - User VCD. VCD format but buffer size, bit rate and VBR can be set manually.<br>3 - Generic MPEG2. Like 0 except MPEG2.<br>4 - SVCD. Standard SVCD. Overrides other option settings.
<br>5 - User-rate SVCD. SVCD format but buffer size bit rate and VBR can be set.<br>6 - VCD Stills stream (mixed mode with hi-res and standard-res image streams multiplexed are supported).<br>7 - SVCD Stills stream.
<br>8 - DVD (with NAV sectors). Don't get too excited. This is really a<br> very minimal mux format. It includes empty versions of the peculiar<br> VOBU start sectors DVD VOB's include. This is enough to persuade some
<br> hardware players to play the stream but is a long way from full DVD authoring.<br>9 - DVD. As above but without the empty VOBU sectors.<br><br><br>I do not think any of these will help. You are working with HD video correct?
