XviD mENCODER settings for anime.

1). I Have a video thats needs to be encoded to play on a hardware dvd/divx player for my TV. I don't wont the player cutting of the hardcoded english subtitle text. So the video needs to be padded.
2). Set top box Hardware dvd/divx certified players can play back (generic mpeg4 avi) video files... If you use a supported codec.
***************************************

Generic MPEG4 Suported codecs:
CODEC : msmpeg4 = DIV3 *ffmpeg *MEncoder. 
CODEC : DIVX  = DX50 * MEncoder.
CODEC : XVID = XVID *ffmpeg *MEncoder.

*************************************
3) So i try using MEncoder to transcode some anime. ffmpeg works better for me... But heres a look at MEncoder for some verity.

VIDEO ==> 640x480 
AUDIO ==> mp3 96kbs
CODEC ==> XVID
RATE ==> 23.976 frames per second
SOURCE ==> DB BLEACH anime XVID not padded avi video.
