But that's only if you set the old qscale CLI options.
If you set the global_quality option directly, there is no factor applied.

By dividing by FF_QP2LAMBDA you break setting this value via 
global_quality, and instead add support for setting it via the old and 
pretty much abandoned qscale interface.
Which is an API break.
