The final two test MPG's are almost done!
I've encoded them using the information that Moth3r passed on to me (thanks SO SO much for your honest and unbiased input and help!!!), I used both VBR CQ and VBR 2nd pass with TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress as I found the results were better then with my first TMPGEnc 2.5 Plus encodings but ANYWAY, I'm taking a short vacation in Denver for the weekend (computer free!) and once I'm back I'll send the samples to the testers and let them pick the final video for the disc

Also before I go....
I would like to thank EVERYONE who has been helping and contributing to this project!!!
