How to set MINIMUM bitrate in VBR 2 -pass on TMPGEnc Authoringworks 4

[eltimbomofo]

I would like to up the minimum bitrate settings on a project as I still have room on the disc at a maximum setting of 9400. On the panel where the settings are adjusted, the minimum bitrate is greyed-out and "permanently" set to 1550 How can adjust this?

Thank you,

Tim

In the old 2.5 encoder, you used to be able to click on the item name, and it would give you an unlock or lock option.
For example, if the item was "aspect ratio" and "4:3" was greyed out, you could click on aspect ratio to get the choice
to unlock or not.
Also, in 2.5, there was a setting you could load called "unlock" that unlocked every item.
Not sure if either of these apply to your product.

Unfortunately that does not seem to work on version 4. Thanks for the attempt though...

It says in the help that this setting cannot currently be changed. I don't understand why you want to change
the minimum. If you want to create a bigger output, increase the average.
