Is there anything, other than user error, that could cause a 2-pass XviD encode to exceed its intended file size? In particular, will it overshoot if the target file size is "too low" for the video's resolution, frame rate, and amount of motion? I just had to set the target amount of video data to 280 mb in order to get the actual amount of data down to ~310 mb (with audio adding another ~40 mb for a total file size of 350 mb).
