I can do it for multipass (and it's sort of on the todo list), but not
for single pass. you can do it with single pass CBR (constant bitrate),
but xvid is all VBR (variable bitrate), and thus you need the second
pass if you want to pick a target filesize.
Once I (or someone else) gets the mpeg (vcd/svcd/etc) modules ported to
ffmpeg (which seemingly supports multipass mpeg encoding), then it would
be possible there, too.
