    Change to inter_minq table. · cec6a596
    Paul Wilkins authored
    The inter_minq table controls the range of quantizers available
    for a particular frame in two pass relative to a max Q value.
    
    The changes reduces the range somewhat. The effect of this
    was a small increase (0.3% average) in psnr for the test set
    but it should also help encode speed somewhat for higher
    quality modes as it will reduce the number of iterations in the
    recode loop.
    
    The change damps the range of quantizers available locally
    within a section of a clip and should therefore help keep quality
    more uniform. If there is systematic overshoot or undershoot the
    range can shift gradually to accommodate. However, there is
    some increased risk of overshoot or undershoot against the target
    bit rate in VBR mode and this risk will be more pronounced for short
    clips.
