Has anyone else noticed that the -Q parameter to mpeg2enc v 1.6.1.90
seems to have much less effect than it did in version 1.6.1?  I've
got one pair of encodes (same capture file input to both) that I ran
yesterday where using -Q 0.0 and -Q 4.0 resulted in exactly the same
size encoded file.  Under 1.6.0, adjusting the -Q factor would result
in differing file sizes and it could be used as a "fine tuning" of
file sizes in between the somewhat large jumps that a modification of
the -q factor causes.  With 1.90, -Q does not seem to have the same
sort of effect, and I'm giving the encoder otherwise identical
parameters.

The reason I'd gotten to use the -Q factor for "fine tuning" is to
hit close to a particular resultant file size (for storage of
multiple videos on a DVD) and -Q worked well to fine tune the encoded
file to be close to the size I wanted.
