[-h]

Added Foxer's max bitrate and overflow customization code for 2-pass encodes. I put it on the Alt. curve tab, though it will affect either 2-pass mode. Note that the max bitrate value is a *hard* cutoff - if a single frame wants more bits than than the bitrate would allow, it gets limited to that value. If 10000 is specified, then each frame in a 24fps clip can get a *maximum* of 52 KB (10000 / 8 / 24), even if it's a single huge frame in the midst of a bunch of small ones.

Also, the minimum I-frame interval now works in all modes - just set it to greater than 1 to enable (or 1 to disable).

Would've done more (i.e. more than the 3 lines I contributed to this patch :)), but am very still tired from the weekend.

You've done more than you know. My HDTV captures are limited not by the disk space but the ability to play them. It does not do much good adding a lot of bits to a scene to make it look good when it is going to get dropped anyway and cause choppiness.

So, thank you for a very useful 3 lines.

Er, max bitrate would be 3 lines from Foxer ;)

I can't even remember what I did in this commit, minus the UI stuff. I know I have some core stuff to commit somewhere in C:\Temp, but I think I should wait until I figure out what it actually is.
