At least two different tools complained/claimed that it was MPEG1.

mencoder -o lemony_snicket.mpg -mpegopts format=svcd -oac lavc -ovc lavc \
-lavcopts
acodec=mp2:abitrate=128:vcodec=mpeg2video:vbitrate=808:keyint=15:vrc_buf_size=917:vrc_maxrate=2500:vpass=2 \
-of mpeg -vf scale=480:432,expand=480:576,harddup Lemony_Snicket.avi \
-speed 25025/24000 -af resample=44100 -srate 44100

I also ran with vpass=1 first. And I used KVCD matrices which I haven't
