@Soulhunter: I have a theory on that.. this tool is based on an x264 build where non curve convergence causes a fatal error.. in other words, if you chose a high bitrate and given your min/max quant settings x264 cannot achieve this bitrate, it will abort. Now I don't know how that abort is being handled here, but it may just cause this problem, seeing that is only happens when you increase the bitrate. You could verify that using x264.exe or mencoder.exe and the same settings.. in those tools you might get a warning but encoding would not abort anymore.
