Remove rencently added FAQ entry because we now have a much better and detailed doc elsewhere.

-This will convert the input file in.avi into
-the output file xsvcd.mpg, converting the
-audio with toolame at 224kbps
-and the video with libavcodec
-at 2500kbps, making sure the bitrate never goes below 600 and never
-exceeds 2500kbps, in order to respect the (S)VCD norm and ensure an
-smooth playback.
-
-Please note that in order to make the GOP structure SVCD compliant the
- 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 should work in most
-cases (as your source is likely to have the appropriate framerate
-already), PAL requires 25 and NTSC requires
- 30000/1001.
-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 video filter, which will make your filter
-chain look like for example for
-an NTSC SVCD or for a PAL SVCD.
-
-As far as the audio is concerned, SVCD only supports MPEG-1 layer II audio,
-therefore you have to use one of
-toolame,
-twolame, or as a last resort
-libavcodec's MPEG-1 layer II
-encoder (as its quality is far from being as good as the former two
-libraries).
-Both toolame and
-twolame follow the same syntax,
-so you depending on which one you managed to install, the example only
-requires a small change. If you do need to use
-libavcodec's MPEG-1 layer II
-encoder, replace
-
--oac toolame -toolameopts br=224
-
-if you use toolame or
-
--oac twolame -twolameopts br=224
-
-if you use twolame by:
-
--oac lavc -lavcopts acodec=mp2:abitrate=224
-

-The resulting xsvcd.mpg is an extended
-SVCD (that is why it is called xsvcd), mainly because it does not contain
-scan offsets. If you need to generate an SVCD image out of it, you
-should pass it to
-vcdimager.
