Thanks Keith, that guide is excellent, and answered alot of my 
questions.  I'm encoding Austin Powers (1) to DIVX4 right now (only 6 
hours to go) :)

Keith, i remember you saying that you needed to use CDRDAO to create 
VCD's?  Is there a reason why i can't just take the VCD files, and make 
an ISO image of them, and burn it with cdrecord?  The VCD's that i've 
watched in the past were nothing but CD's with a specific filesystem on 
them.
