user21750: As far as I know, cd quality for mp3s is at least 128 kbps.
What should the video bitrate be to obtain dvd quality? 
Note I'm using mp4 container with mp3 audio and mpeg4 video.

user-1: Of course it depends on the used codec as well, it is not all about bitrate. But it is possible to have a reasonable quality @3,5 Mbit/s. But using the maximum range of ~9Mbit/s. usually looks much better, but the space of a DVD is limited, so that it is not enough for a 90 minute movie. The best thing is to try different settings for your mpeg4. Remember that this video must obey DVD restriction in order to be played in a DVD player.
