    Sorry, I can help you if you use our application. I've no clue with Xilisoft.
    The basic reason is simple: SVCD are VBR and you can make a 1600 MB mpeg, as well a 800 MB mpeg, with the same movie.
    Usually you observe the CD's length and, calculating a little plus due to authoring, set the bitrate according to the length, so the resulting mpeg-2 will come about 830 MB.
    I use TMPGenc to encode the mpeg-2, Nero to make the SVCD from the encoded mpeg-2 and FitCD to calculate the VBR setting, ax explained in http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/dvd2svcd_with_tmpgenc.cfm (read from the FitCD part above, avoid the DVD-ripping part and use 2 CDs for a <= 100' movie, avoid splitting a longer movie on 3 CDs).
    I hope I helped you and your daughter...
