theora dev - Jul 2009 - Estimate bytes per second from th_info-settings

Hi
Is there a way to estimate the number of bytes per second from the information
passed in the th_info-struct to the Theora encoder's th_encode_alloc()?
I'm trying to be able to give users a rough estimate of the file size needed
to encode with the setting provided to th_info-struct (frame width/height,
fps_numerator/fps_denominator, target_bitrate and quality).

It's difficult to estimate from the frame size and rate. If you give
the 1.1/thusnelda encoder a target bitrate it will respect that, but
the 1.0 encoder pretty much ignores it. For a particular input set and
and quality setting, you just have to measure it.
