 > Note that even if your command lines would work (they may work with a
 {{{cp ffmpeg2pass-0.log ffmpeg2pass-1.log && cp ffmpeg2pass-0.log.mbtree
 ffmpeg2pass-1.log.mbtree}}} in-between), this is not how two-pass encoding
 is supposed to be used to the best of my knowledge.

 Please reopen if you believe there is a bug in FFmpeg that can be fixed.
