The command line I provided was simply a sample.

I did try countless iterations of options.  This just happened to be the 
last one I had tried.

dc=10 was in there because if I set vqmin to 1, dc=10 was the only way I 
could eliminate strobing artifacts.

mv0, and cmp=2 were taken from the docs. (14.8.3.4. Advanced Options)
