Is it necessary to always do the second XviD pass directly after the first?

[McGee]

If I do a first pass on movie_a.avs, and then I open movie_b.avs and do a first pass, can I later open movie_a.avs and do a second pass? Does the video.pass file remember only the stats for the most recent first pass, or does it remember all of them?

nope it remembers just the last one, iirc

killingspree's right (isn't he always? :)). If all you did was keep the default video.pass, then you screwed up, because now you just have the statistics for movie_b. So next time, make a pass file for each movie, like, movie_a.pass and movie_b.pass, and save each in the movie folder for that movie.
