+0 is equivalent to 1, which makes every frame a keyframe.
 Values >300 are not recommended as the quality might be bad depending upon
 decoder, encoder and luck.
 For a strict MPEG1/\:2/\:4 compliance this would have to be <=132.

 Always use the maximum number of B-frames (default).

 Avoid B-frames in high motion scenes.

 You might want to backup divx2pass.log before doing this if there is
 any possibility that you will have to cancel MEncoder.
