      x264 encoding pass 1

      The x264 benchmark uses the MPEG 4 x264 compression method to encode the HD (720p) sample video. Pass 1 is a faster option that produces an output file at a constant bit rate. Its result is measured in frames per second, that is, how many frames of the source video file were encoded in one second on average.
