Ok - then the particular tape I was processing was noisier than
expected (and in need of color correction as are all the tapes I've
seen so far).

You mean like this:
INFO: [mpeg2enc] Frame 3 2 B q=5.00 sum act=330.71616
INFO: [mpeg2enc] Frame 4 6 P q=5.00 sum act=346.82605
INFO: [mpeg2enc] Frame 5 4 B q=5.00 sum act=374.33668
INFO: [mpeg2enc] Frame 6 5 B q=5.00 sum act=389.82617
INFO: [mpeg2enc] Frame 7 8 P q=5.00 sum act=406.01302
INFO: [mpeg2enc] Frame 8 7 B q=5.00 sum act=421.95680
:-)
It does print out the effective "q" per frame - in the case above
the effective matches the specified (-q 5) value since leading
black frames were being processed.
