Well, I sent an email to the mailing-list. It's now easy to get in touch
with the developers. I think that bug will be quickly solved, if it's
not already solved in the latest SVN version.

Well, in fact, I was reading an man page which is some months old. And
there wasn't that option in the man page. Therefore, I though the only
thing to activate CBR was to not use the -q option. And that's what I
understood in the (old) Mjpeg howto available on the official website.
It wasn't really clearly explained... :-/

I'll use a lower video bitrate (9600) and lower audio bitrate (224) as
you suggested me. I'll test that.

As regards to the B-frames, I just read this in the (NEW) man page:
There  should  be  an option to force GOP sizes that permit 2 B frames
between I/P frames.  Some decoders (even software)  can't handle the
case where I/P frames come back to back or with only 1 B frame between
them.

Huh !?! In fact, I worried about the missing B-frames, because in almost
all the documentation I read about the mpeg2 GOP structure, there was
B-frames. Anyway, you explained me there's no problem with a "B-frame
less" GOP structure.

Thank you.
Nicolas
