Compression Test seems to run with a default crf=20 for x264. That's fine for a general compressability test.

However, when I select 1-pass encoding I would prefer if the compression test would run with my crf setting in the Video Encoder Tab, because the Compression Test would then give me an estimation of the expected file size. This could be very helpful to check if my 1-pass encode will fit on say a 4.7 GB disc.

Further, it appears that HDC crashes if I enter a sample size <1, say 0.5. Small samples sizes <1 should be sufficient for large BluRay files I guess.
