I always target specific size for files I transcode, which is only reason I am always running VMWare with Windows on my Linux machine. I think this would be nice feature to have with Arista, and Arista will be probably first Opensorce software that will have this.., (I checked all alternatives for Xvid4PSP which is software I use under windows).

Here is link to exact instructions, how to do this:
