wow, looks great, and works great! i also figured out why i was having
troubles with bitrate using lavc a while back...someone changed
mencoder so it only accepts bitrate values in kbits, not bits. that's
fine i suppose, but the manual should probably be updated to reflect
this. also, some quick tests indicate that the default 8 kbit
bitrate tolerance may be a bit too high -- i was getting files quite a
bit too big, even with 2pass mode. i dunno what an optimal tolerance
would be. i used 256 bits but that's probably excessively low.

anyway, thanks for getting it all working great again. filters seem to
be doing fine now, including ones that alter the size.

are you planning to work on the muxer implementation at all, or are
you just going to wait on alex to get that done? it's not a big
concern for me; i'm just curious.
