With this option the status line (i.e. A:   0.7 V:   0.6 A-V:  0.068 ...)
will not be displayed.
Particularly useful on slow terminals or broken ones that do not properly
handle carriage return (i.e. \\r).
.TP
.B \-v, \-verbose
Increment verbose level (more \-v means more verbosity).
.TP
.B \-useaviaspect
With this option MPlayer and MEncoder will read and write the aspect setting
from the OpenDML Video Property Header.

only some informational output (default)

CBR only, VBR ignores this as it puts each packet in a new chunk.
.TP
.B \-audio-preload <0.0\-2.0>
Sets up audio buffering time interval (default: 0.5s).
.TP
.B \-aviaspect <w:h>
Encode an additional AVI header with aspect ratio.
This is a different method than the "aspect=..." option of
libavcodec or XviD, and is prioritized over it during playback,
because this header is processed first.

This option is included for completeness.
Some players can understand it, while they do not understand the
aspect headers produced by the codec.
If you wish to target such a player, use this option.
Generally, encoding AVIs with square pixels is still the best
choice, so aspect headers should be avoided.
Only use this option if you know what you are doing.
Avoid using it together with the aspect option of the codec, as it
could give unpredictable results.

.I EXAMPLE:
.PD 0
.RSs
.IPs "\-aviaspect 16:9"
will add a header specifying 16:9 aspect ratio.
.RE
.PD 1

.TP
.B \-endpos <[[hh:]mm:]ss[.ms]|size[b|kb|mb]> (see \-ss and \-sb option too)
Stop encoding at given time or byte position.
