Thanks for the link.  I'll do some experimenting with the "Options to
adjust" section.

I should have written explicitly that I'm interested in reducing
filesize without visibly reducing quality.  So the given vbitrate was
just meant as a fill-in.  For my own encoding I use three different
vbitrate values (3000, 1500, 800) for different purposes, and the
filesize reduction ratio is similar with all of them.  Or am I
misunderstanding what you meant?
