dear major

we've probably all come across the odd .nfo file accompanying a svcd movie, where the encoding specs were like "... 6-pass enconding ..." and very high bitrates.

what difference would a n-pass encoding yield, i.e. the more passes, the better the final result? would it be an improvement, where quality matters the most (and time doesn't)?

i wouldn't mind a six or even more pass process if it adds up quality, talking all divx, xvid, mp4 and s/vcd methods!

btw, keep up the good work. ffmpegX is getting there!
