You need to have "harddup" in your video filters when using "-of mpeg". 

Even with that, the MPEG file you output will have the wrong blocksize
(as Nico said), and vcdimager will have to pad it, wasting a lot of your
VCD's disc space for no reason.  It's much better to take the mpeg file,
then use "mplayer -dumpvideo" and "-dumpaudio", then muxing the two
together with mplex or tcmplex (even smaller output).  Alternatively,
you can apply Nico's MPEG patch to your mplayer source, and avoid all of
this.
