Lower values result in better fidelity, but higher bitrates. Note that quantization in H.264 works differently from MPEG[124]. -H.264's quantizer parameter (QP) is on a logarithmic scale. +H.264's quantization parameter (QP) is on a logarithmic scale. As an example, the bitrate difference between QP=20 and QP=40 is about a factor of 10. Useful quantizers in H.264 tend to be very large compared to MPEG[124].
