More fixes by the Wanderer and tip about another SVCD constrain suggested by Giacomo Comes

15846:63b0f4164194

Please note that in order to make the GOP structure SVCD compliant the
<option>keyint</option> option should be 15 for PAL and 18 for NTSC,
although very often files with much longer GOPs play correctly (25 should
never lead to any problem).
Also, even though leaving out <option>-ofps</option> should work in most
cases, (as your source is likely to have the appropriate framerate
already) PAL requires <option>-ofps</option> 25 and NTSC requires
<option>-ofps</option> 30000/1001.
</para><para>
As far as the audio is concerned, SVCD only supports MPEG-1 layer II audio,
therefore you have to use one of
<systemitem class="library">toolame</systemitem>,
<systemitem class="library">twolame</systemitem>, or as a last resort

What's more, PAL SVCDs only support 480x576 and 352x288 resolutions,
whereas NTSC only supports 480x480 and 352x240.
If the source video has a different resolution, then you must rescale
with the <option>scale</option> video filter, which will make your filter
chain look like for example <option>-vf scale=480:480,harddup</option> for
an NTSC SVCD or <option>-vf scale=352:288,harddup</option> for a PAL SVCD.
