Well, I suppose it makes it more versatile so you don't have to add or remove stuff from the turbo flag but if turbo is implemented as mentioned in the x264 dev thread then I have no reason to convince you really.

I assume that when using the automatic 2 pass mode with turbo enabled it only uses the reduced settings in the first pass and uses the settings specified in the gui for the second pass, right?

Not necessarily for altering the codec settings for my purpose but generally I think this is a worthwhile feature, in case mistakes are made etc.

Niiice. AMD or P4? I'm sure that will aid with the next codec comparison. I did note that the options worked correctly for mencoder, it's just the 'none' switch that needs adding when using the cli.

Cheers.
