The biggest tells were the case artwork was low quality, as if it had been scanned and reprinted, and the label on the disc itself was completely wrong, using cropped art from the case instead of the more boring standard Warner Archive disc label with just the logo and some text.

Damn, is this something you have witnessed or are you just speculating? Sincere question.

I’ve had a few shows on DVD like that. The only really option is to append each episode to the intro. I used mkvtoolnix to do that, but it gets tedious pretty quickly.

I've NEVER seen 25 sped up to 30. That would be ridiculous if it happened. I very much doubt it. 24 is regularly sped up to 25 for PAL DVDs, yes, and even that chipmunks the voices and makes 100bpm music 104bpm with two thirds of a key higher pitch (sounds almost like a full key higher).
