However, it still doesn't make sense to me! A 30 seconds video encoded with a total data rate (video + audio) of 700 kilobits/second should

All FLV file sizes are dependent on those encoding properties. Those variables are what create the variance in file sizes. The KeyFrame interval for instance will increase or decrease file size depending on the amount of interpolation required between each keyframe. If you have a keyframe every

The bitrate is only a target. If you use single-pass encoding, the codec will attempt to match the bitrate, but if it encounters a segment that uses more bits, it'll hope that it can make it up later. But if the keyframe interval is too low or resolution is too high, it may never be able to,
