For the numbers I posted, the q value was 7.  It is interesting that
-N would have differing effects depending on the -q value.  That may
depend on how/where -N is applied within the encoder.  If it's
applied after -q has had it's effect, then that might explain why
changing -q changes -N's effect.

That is interesting.  All the encodes I ran were run on a Linux
system with kernel version 2.4.19.  It's a P4 celeron and mpeg2enc
reports that it's using the MMX and SSE extensions that are available
for a P4.  Are all the MMX/SSE optimizations the same for both copies
of mpeg2enc?  If not, that would imply that the optimizations aren't
all producing the same output from the same input.
