The video bitrate is already set to the highest possible. It's set to 7000kbps average 8000kbps max. If i push it any higher then some players will have issues with the video due to DVD bitrate limitations. The main video has already been rendered so all i am doing is filling the extra space with what i can.

Ady,

I didn't realize that the video bitrate was already maxed out so that's not an issue after all. How much extra space is left for special features? It sounds like you've already got quite a bit of stuff on there so I'd imagine there isn't much room left. By the way, approximately how much longer do you think it will be before the DVD-9 is uploaded to Usenet? The only reason I ask is because I'm going out of town soon and I won't have internet access for a couple weeks. Just trying to get an idea of the timing and whether I'll be able to download it before I leave or if I'll have to wait until I get back. Take care, mate.
