Sounds horrible indeed.

;-) How about P-8B-P ? If you think that would work, maybe you could
compile my code, set max_bframes = 8 and see how it goes?
It would do exacly what you had said.
I'm just curious :)

Of course, probably nothing would help with the cloud clip... maybe
except setting skip-thresholds to half of their current values.
