Hi,

I've noticed that when I set up my x264 settings, the first
pass always seems to have some weird target kbps. For
example:

As you can see, the target kbps is 1384. It seems weird
since GKnot's calculation of the kbps is 923 (for my specified
file size). The second pass settings is right - 923 kbps.

Is it supposed to be like this? Or should I change the first pass
target kbps to what GKnot calculated?

The target bitrate on the first pass shouldnt matter since you arent keeping it, and its outputting to a 'null' file.

Im suprised the box isnt greyed out like it is in the xvid vfw gui..
