Having slept on it, I should have offered this solution.

If you want all your scenes to appear as one seamless item on the video, try

scene1.avi scene2.avi scene3.avi | yuvscaler -O DVD | yuvdenoise | mpeg2enc -f 
8 -I 1 -q 7 -o scenes.m2v

scene1.avi scene2.avi scene3.avi | mp2enc -v 2 -o scenes.mp2

mplex -f 8 scenes.m2v scenes.mp2 -o scenes.mpg


If you want individual scenes that fit together on the dvd, use the same 
commands, but on each scene separately, then string them together in 
dvdauthor.  When you play the dvd you will be able to use the scene-forward 
function.
