61 <P>The name comes from the fact that this method encodes the file <I>twice</I>.
62 The first encoding (dubbed <I>pass</I>) creates a temporary file with a size
63 of few megabytes. In the second pass, the output file is created, using the
64 bitrate data from the temporary file. The resulting file will have much
65 better image quality. If this is the first time you heard about this, you
66 should consult some guides available on the Net.</P>
