Going form XVID (MPeg-4) ---> DVD (MPEG-2) involves loss of quality.If your dvd player can handle mpeg-4, there is no need to do this.OTOH if it cant, you just threw away the quality of the xvid.

Thats interesting, I guess (but don't know for sure) quality should be independent of format. Do you know any specific aspet of quality that would be lost if movie is converted to MPEG 2?

Since he is not actually making a DVD, he can is not bound to any perticular resolution and bitrate.

The reason it was encoded to mp4 or xvid from the dvd is to get similar quality in a smaller space. Reversing the process increases the size, and its a recode. You may not see it, but both are lossy, changing from lossy to another lossy without a valid reason is never a good idea.

Okay got it (lossy ->lossy conversion will loose details). I though that you mean mp4 itself will give you better quality then mp2.
