I have another question related to ffmpeg/x264

This is from my programmer this morning:

"The main issue is that I can get really great quality movie which is larger and it seems not it's not working in all platforms (Mac, iPad, ...) or the quality is really terrible."

Sound familiar?

Do you know if there's a patch in the works to make 'ffmpeg  --help' report something about these?  It seems like it might require building some "handshaking" between them that might not already exist in general form.
