I know 2-pass VBR better than 1-pass. I'm just wondering if I set the 
min/avg/max all the same bit rate in 2-pass VBR. Would that be same as 1-pass 
CBR.

No, 2 pass encoding is always better. The first pass is examining the 
footage to determine the places that the encoder may need to allocate 
extra bits (like fast motion or high detailed scenes) and where it can 
use less bits (like still photos, graphics or black scenes). Then that 
information is used in the second pass, the actual encoding pass, to 
create a higher quality encode.

For DVD masters, I always use 2 pass VBR. There is a definite difference 
between 1 pass VBR or even CBR.
