[FFmpeg-devel] flashsvenc.c - sampling block size too low

[Jason Askew]

Ok.

I have yet to encounter a case with 1x1 as the best.

Two pass encoding will solve this, but I still will advocate that the
'default' is higher than 1x1.

If I need a mass of data to prove that over my word, I will provide
it.  What will it take?  Let me know I'll do it.
