final settings for h.264 encoding

i use x264 and megui. maybe can put up profiles later. for now:

lq: reduction to d4 where applicable
reduction to f2 (3d games) or f3 (sprite based games) where applicable
automated two pass 128 kbps
min quantizer 17
audio: le-aac cbr 64 kbps

mq ("normal quality"): reduction to d4 where applicable
reduction to f2 (3d games) or f3 (sprite based games) where applicable
automated two pass 512 kbps
min quantizer 17
audio: le-aac cbr 64 kbps

hq: automated two pass 2048 kbps
min quantizer 17 (d4) 19 (d1)
audio: le-aac cbr 128 kbps

iq: automated two pass 5000 kbps
min quantizer 17 (d4) 19 (d1)
audio: le-aac cbr 320 kbps

in case the average bitrates for hq and iq are the same, iq will be overwritten by hq, keeping the hq name.
