You can believe me. But you have now put forward an expectation that was 
not revealed earlier, so I can understand your disbelief. 1:32 length, 
WMAudio 9.1 (48kbps, 32kHz, stereo), WMV V8, 386Kbps. You did not state 
specific requirements for the VGA video, you have now applied specific 
requirements for YOUR defined video needs that were not shared in the 
earlier statements on the subject.
Go to: http://www.pocket-dvd-wizard.com/ for more details...

In the end, it is all about what is acceptable for a given set of needs, 
isn't it?
