PPro2 best bitrates for transcoding in AME to DVD

hello. have created 165-minute movie (including 8 minutes of motion menus) authored menus/chapters in tmpg authoring works 4.  i'm exporting ppro2 via adobe media encoder transcoding mp2, , have space left on due current bitrate settings: 1.5 minimum, 6 target, 8 maximum. resulting master factory-replicated glass master.  audio transcoded stereo ac3 only; no subtitles.

 

tmpg showing current movie size 7.323gb.  increase bitrate settings in ame best possible visual quality, i've read various limit recommendations of 7, 8, or @ 9mbps max setting.   burn verbatim dvd+r dl shows usable space of 8.025gb. can assume factory replicating avoid dvd player compatability problems due high bitrates?

 

my bit budget calculator v.2 gives maximum video-only bitrate of 9.352mbps, average bitrate of 6.594, , video-only target bitrate of 6.146.  target number doable, wonder if dare boost max 9mbps (which bit budget calculator says should not exceeded), while keeping minimum @ 1.5

 

any advice bitrates appreciated.  thank you.

i think max = 8 high, go. bumping min 1.5. why have chosen low min?

 

good luck,
