x264enc encoding parameters

[Ian Davidson]

Hi Nicolas,

I totally understand why you say that.  However, I think that the 
dimensions I have specified can be achieved by negotiation with the 
source, so I suspect that the scaling is actually doing nothing.  In 
that case, would the sequence of steps make a difference?
