Newbie question on GK target file size/bitrate

[wdu1]

I am a newbie on using GK, when I want to convert an mpeg 2 file to xvid1.03 NIC using GK, where should I set the target filesize/bitrate? I am using 2 pass Xvid encode, Should I set in the GK's Bitrate tab for target filesize (eg 300M, 700M) and can I assume that GK will pass this target filesize to the Xvid codec during the 2 pass encoding. Or should I set the target file size in the Xvid codec config in its 2pass parameters manually. Because I want to do a batch encode, seems that everytime you enter Xvide target size in the Xvid codec setup a little weried.


thanks

ok, I got my issue solved. As some of the online guide instruct the user to config the xvid codec before using GK, in fact GK will automitaclly create some registry files for every encoding job and fillin the appropriate target filesize info. into the Xvid codec when it is processing the job. so my question is solved, GK will do it all. All I need is to configure the Xvid codec on encoding matrix and GMC Qpel etc..
