FPS-based ratecontrol on 2pass?

So according to this: http://git.videolan.org/?p=x264.git;...152e5cfe746d43

When using CRF the FPS of the video is taken into account. Will 2pass (and other modes) take this into account as well or does this only apply to CRF mode?

That's not how I read the post. I read it as saying that rate control in general is VFR aware.

CRF is affected by this, but it's not the only rate control method capable of VFR. I could be wrong, but I think this is accurate.

I don't doubt that I probably misunderstood the commit message. Unfortunately I cannot find any resources that explain video encoding. I still have no idea what an MB-tree or VFR is, and not for lack of trying.

VFR
MB-tree (scroll down to the FAQ:"What does it actually do?")

I agree with Blue_MiSfit, x264's bitrate distribution is VFR-aware in all modes IIRC, not just CRF.

All ratecontrol modes consider the frame duration in their calculations.
