        tmpgenc of course.   the kvcd tables were designed to reduce the bitrate
        to allow for longer playing time - once detail/contrast/sharpness is
        lost it can not be recovered by raising the bitrate.

        Yes, and defeat the purpose of using the kvcd tables in the first 
        place ;)   Depending on the material you can see the effect of the
        kvcd tables - slight softening or less sharpness at times.

        For clean material I'd start with "-q 6 -K tmpgenc -E -10" - that's
        been a good combination of parameters for me.
