True. zerolatency will cause at least initial frames to be blocky, and
might reduce quality during movement (but will get rid of encoding
latency). When a video is blocky, it is often that the bitrate is too
low. This isn't a rule, as the minimum bitrate for an acceptable visual
quality depends on all the other parameters. Most people I have met have
created static profiles (quality step) by tweaking. Latency requirement
is normally orthogonal to quality. In VOIP it's often a requirement (not
a choice).
