I followed thiras directions and i just don't get this part


"When its done, do it all over, except change xvid to "Twopass - 2nd pass" and set the bitrate somewhere between 2000-3000. Higher than 3000 is overkill in any case.


THE PART ABOVE IS VERY IMPORTANT

Save it again."

Ok I did the first save with "twopass- 1st pass" and it took like 30 minutes to render it. Now he says to do "Twopass - 2nd pass" wouldn't that overwrite my 1st pass? So whats the whole point of doing the first pass? I don't get what hes saying. I did the 2nd pass and now its all blurry....help plz

You do not want to use the first pass as your video and do not recode that first pass with the second pass. That is just to see whether the quality is how you want it.
