But you are breaking scripts that are already written! IMHO if you have
troubles with your script you should work around them.
Why don't you rename lavc encoding parameters then? For some strange
reason a lot of them begins with "v", there is no point in that. In
ffmpeg & xvid they are called more consistently.

Btw, if you are renaming them anyway, it's a good idea to rename lavc
options to ffmpeg ones and xvid options to xvid4conf ones.
