Viewing encoding statistics

Windows Media 8 Encoder Utility displays statistics and diagnostic information after a given file is encoded. Statistics include codecs used, total number of bytes encoded, average bit rate, average frame rate, and so on. The statistics enable you to monitor the success of the encoding session and provide useful information that you can use to change the command-line options to achieve a different result the next time you encode a file.

The most common statistics are displayed by default, but you can turn them off by using the –silent option. Use the –allstats option to see all of the available statistics.
