Adding vrc_minrate to tablet-encode 2.19 seems to have broken 2 pass encoding.

Code:
tablet-encode -2 -s -p best test.avi sample.avi
[snip]
[mpeg4 @ 0xa42b00]Warning min_rate > 0 but min_rate != max_rate isn't recommended!
[mpeg4 @ 0xa42b00][lavc rc] Error: bitrate too low for this video with these parameters.
Could not open codec.
FATAL: Cannot initialize video driver.
Commenting out line 317:
Code:
 ':vrc_minrate='.int($ovbitrate / 2).
corrects the error message and allows the second pass to run.

Thanks for this really helpful script!
