Folks kind enough to say 'thanks' is sufficient ;)

Which means the 'prediction' (P) frames are decaying and it's time to,
as you noticed, start a new GOP. A size of 10 is quite reasonable for
video with a lot of motion. Eventually the dynamic GOP sizing
will be completed (the detection logic is already present - you
probably noticed some extra log messages from 'mpeg2enc' flagging
points at which it would start a new GOP) and you won't have to worry
as much about it. Until then 10's fine.

So far so good - I wonder though if the default tables (skip the -K)
would work well.

Good.

The defaults do seem to be a bit aggressive. You might try the
values I sent via private mail.

I tend to put that first in the pipeline - but I don't think that's
critical.

-t 3 -z 2 might be a worthwhile set of values to try.

Ok. If your video will fit on the media then you're all done - those
are reasonable values

The cubicK4 (-S option=cubicK4) may be worth trying - it might be
better (but then it might not ;)) than a simpler 'cubic' scaling
kernel.

Yes indeed - that conversion to/from DV was definitely not improving
the quality (and you probably noticed it added quite a bit to the
processing time :)).
Sounds like you're having a lot of fun and moving right along - keep
us posted.
