Thanks Nico,
I am trying to understand the encoding stuff, so have all this questions..
would be great if they can be answered.

Does FLV use bframes at all ?
Is there an option that can be used to disable bframes in flv while encoding
? The max-bframe parameter is only for xvid.
The error says that it is broken for muxing, so is it okay to assume that
output will not be affected if input file has bframes (after disabling
bframes in output) ?

Thank you,
