Use Dolby Digital AC3 audio to allow for higher Video Bitrates to be used. Setting it too high above 8000 kbps is not recommended for this reason but how high is too high?ĮDIT: The DVD specification says that the maximum multiplexed bitrate of a video/audio stream must be no greater than 10.08 Mbps (10080 kbps), so:ġ0080 kbps - 1536 kbps if LPCM wav audio is used = 8544 kbps for video bitrate.Ībout 500 kbps should account for most video bitrate fluctuations so about 8000 kbps should be selected as Constant Video Bitrate for 60 minutes or less.
When there is plenty of DVD space to fit a shorter capture, what video bit rate should be set for compatibility with most DVD players?
