Comment:

 This kind of general ticket is not good, because it can never be closed
 and it's hard to track what needs to be done or is already fixed. Anyway,
 of the 3 features you listed:
 * Video watermarking is out of scope of MediaConverter - this is just a
 simple format conversion tool, not a full blown video editing suite or a
 tool like nandub/virtualdub
 * 2-pass codecs: I don't know what this means. and it's up to the codecs
 to decide what they do anyway.
 * quantization matrices: out of scope for a simple app like
 MediaConverter, which is meant to be a simple tool to convert video
 formats.

 So, this is not at all the direction we want for MediaConverter. It would
 make a great 3rd-party application, however.
