Then your DVD player cannot play vfr content at all. Well, unless you
give up on avi and use mpeg container with proper DVD-format mpeg2,
and even then mencoder is not smart enough to be able to use repeat
field flags to generate vfr mpeg2.

No.

Your fundamental problem is that you bought a crappy DVD player for
playing video files on your TV. Using a simple computer with mplayer
and tvout will work much better. :)
