That's a very good answer! Exactly what I needed.
Except don't do that. Hitting an exact target filesize will unnecessarily compromise the quality. You want constant quality or some high motion scenes or high detail scenes (rain or large crowds) will look really bad because the encoder is throwing out quality to hit an exact file size target.
Do a constant quality encode at say Q19. If the file is too big for you, up that to 22 and try again. When you find a q factor that's close to the file size you want, use it for everything.
Nice
