try this options:
-nosound
as you must create an ogm file with ogg audio (64kbit/s or even less
will be enough)
to save some space from your CDs
-ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=<here your bitrate>
you can set the bitrate of 750 or more for an overburned 80min CD with a
film of 2h.
but you need to choose the bitrate accordingly to the film length and
the size of your media.
and now the *quality* options:
:vqmin=2:vlelim=-4:vcelim=9:lumi_mask=0.05:dark_mask=0.01:psnr:vhq:v4mv:trell:qpel:vpass=1
it's sloooow but you get almost the maximum PSNR value you can play with
more paramaters and change the above values but you get only few or no
better results
and don't forget vpass=2 for the second pass encoding ;)
if you are in hurry you can remove qpel, trell, v4mv and even vhq but don't go without second pass encoding.
you can encode 2h or longer film at a reasonable resolution of 640x360 (even more or sometimes less)
even if you get 0,1 bit per pixel with the above parameters some (almost all) film are not so bad, but some need even 0,2 or much more (you must try).
and don't forget cropping (use -vop cropdetect)
...and good luck.
