Your advice is very sound and informative my friend.

I do agree with the 2 pass variable bitrate settings because the video I have produced is fairly dynamic, as it has many transitions and sometimes a lot of movement and then sometimes an almost completely static image- so that should help me save some space.

Also, do you think when someone selects a chapter to be played it should immediately play or should I have about a 90 frame or so fade in? I know thats not a tech question but rather a objective question, all advice is welcome.

Also is there anyway in NeroVision to put up my copyright disclaimer BEFORE the menu or do I need to resort to putting a 5 second disclaimer at the beginning of every sequence?

Lastly, could you tell me what GOP is? I have no clue what that stands for.
