+ The complexity of the frames of a movie, and thus the number of bits
+ required to compress them, can vary greatly from one scene to another.
Modern video encoders can adjust to these needs as they go and vary
the bitrate.
- However, in simple modes such CBR, they cannot exceed the requested
- average bitrate for long stretches of time, because they do not know
- the bitrate needs of future scenes.
- Wiser modes, such as multipass encode can take into account the
- statistics from previous passes, which fixes the problem mentioned
