x264: disable subq=0 (the huge bitrate penalty wasn't worth the speed),
and set default subq to best. wording.
renumber direct_pred (temporal seems to be best)

 The best choice depends on the movie.
+Spatial and temporal are approximately the same speed and PSNR,
+but temporal often looks better.
 direct_pred=0 is usually both slower and lower quality.

 Adjust subpel refinement quality.
 This parameter controls quality versus speed tradeoffs involved in the motion
 estimation decision process.
 It can improve quality significantly.
