    CBR is constant Bit Rate, so the whole file has the same bitrate. VBR is variable bit rate, which means that the bits can be used more efficiently, using more bits where needed, and fewer where they are not.

    and two pass VBR will try to fit a specific file size target at the expense of approx twice the time to encode.

    The above answers are correct, and this link may be of use.

    This link explains what's going on in 2-Pass VBR. Look at "Rate Control Method - 2-Pass VBR" in the "Video" section.
    There is some corner of a foreign field that is forever England: Telstra Stadium, Sydney, 22/11/2003.

    Carpe diem.

    If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room.
