An excerpt from

I encode like that:

theora-encoder -va -vf -va crop=704:424,scale=528:320,hqdn3d=4:3:6 \
               -s 64 -S 45 \
               -a 0 -v 5.4 -o 528-320-5.4-0-436.ogg \
               dvd://1
 ...
That test transformed 122 minutes of DVD 1001x424 (really 720x424=>1024x424)
into 670 MB of 750x320 (really 528x320) which my 800 MHz Athlon can play
without frame drops.
