why are people using vqmin=1?? Does it really improve?
Boh? If it does, well. If not, amen. At least I hope it doesn't degrade it.
Are you sure you know what you are doing? I just *heard* it pumps up the size (but how, if you specify bitrate?) but no info in any docs. I heard it reduces quality/size ratio, but I havent confirmed it.
It's not the black bars that you should be concerned about. MPEG1/2/4 is optimised for them and handles them well. The problem is the border between black bars and picture. It sucks bits of videostream like the member of the oldest proffession. When I did some tests it appeared that to achieve the same picture quality with and without the black borders one had add about 5% to bitrate. Now count that for average 90min flick.
