I used to encode with divx5.02, but now I download the 5.03ĄŁ
The "Nth pass" is a really new one feature to me.

MY question are as follows:

1.How do I set the number of pass?(maybe too simple, but I really don't know how to!)
Is it choose the "Multi pass, 1st pass" once and save the avi, then repeatly choose the "Multi pass, Nth pass" and save the avi as many times as you want?I could not see any other setting about that number of Nthpass.

2.How many pass would everyhere here usually choose?
I think two or three answers are enough, just as a consult :)

You answered question 1 correctly. Each time you run a "Nth-pass, n-pass" it updates the logfile.

It is a pretty general agreement that three or four passes is enough. After that the differences aren't really noticable.

btw ... this has been said quite a few time. Make sure to search next time.
