I did not make any tests myself, so my experiances just come form
some years of reading multimedia Ml, forums and NGs most focused on
linux.

I thing everybody would agree that all tools comming form the
mjpeg-tools (AKA yuv <TAB> <TAB>), produce high-quality results.

I totally agree that ffmpeg has improved a lot, but I suppose their
major focus is on speed. Further they have to take care for a long list
of codecs. IMHO (/me = no coder), it is developed with a different
approach.

It spite ffmpeg will surely cover my low-end demands, I would
*still* advice anyone who is looking for a best quality toolchain
for mpeg2 encoding to use mjpeg-tools. 

In the case of dv->dvd: smilutils | mjpeg-tools is AFAIK a good
choice.

Nevertheless, mjepg-tools "brought" the requant to linux, as
it was Metakines return for using mpeg2enc code, IIRC.

BTW: Did I already mention that I am a mjpeg-tools fan ;).

From my point of view transcode is the kit that brings them all
together. In spite transcodes syntax is still a steep learning
curve, you have only to fight with one tool for a bunch of codecs.

Just my 0.02$.

BTW: IMHO there is no need to deinterlace when you transcode dv ->
     dvd, is it?
