The default bitrate is rather low for a resolution of 1024x800.
First off, you probsbly don't really want 1024x800... how about
trying:

 -vf scale -zoom -xy 512
 
and use these lavcopts (just for starters):

 -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=1800:nr=200:mbd=2:v4mv:trell

You can scale it up when you watch it with mplayer usign the -x
and -y options.

These are just simple starting options. (puts on flameproof
leotard and dances offstage)
