Encoding Method
Selects the method to be used to encode the MPEG-4 file.
If you select Fast (1-pass), the movie only undergoes one
conversion pass. This method requires less time but has lower
quality than encoding in two steps. The movie is analyzed and
converted with the available bit rate simultaneously.
If you select High quality (2-pass), the movie undergoes several
conversion passes. The quality is better, but the process takes
longer. The first pass analyzes the movie and creates a temporary
file (*log). The second pass converts the file. During this process, the
bit rate data that was stored in the temporary files is used.
