The crf parameter is currently accepted but ignored. I've just committed a patch to CVS HEAD that activates constant-quality mode if the crf parameter is given (and nonzero). >PS: Is there an equivalent option in transcode for mencoder's "partitions" >("analyse" on the x264 executable)? Currently, no; all partition types are enabled. I can look into adding an option for this if it would be useful. --Andrew Church [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://achurch.org/
