MovieStacker: Average Bitrate is Calculated for the MPG?

I've got a question. When I load my source into moviestacker,
the average bitrate is calculated for the mpg file right?

That value (the average bitrate) I can use for cqmatic, for prediction.

Now my question: how do I change the MIN & MAX bitrate used in moviestacker? Because it's now calculating the average bitrate with a MAX of 2500 and a min of 1200. I would like to change that to MAX 2200 and MIN 64, so that the average bitrate is computed correctly for CQmatic...

The calculation of 'Average bitrate' has nothing to do with Min & Max bitrates.

It has to do with length of movie, number of discs , space for audio stream, etc.

Min & Max values help CQMatic determine the correct CQ setting using the average bitrate you supply.

Have you tried using CalcuMatic?

The average bitrate do not depend of the min and max but only of the length of the source and the size of the target. So do not need to change them.

Allright, I get it.

Thnx you guys!
