Topic: Support for "b:v 0" when trying to transcode libvpx_vp9?

I'm trying to transcode a Libvpx VP9 video - trying to avoid most options because file size is really huge.

However, since we can't use 2-pass transcoding with SVP, I'm trying to find a compromise solution, as specified here: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Encode/VP9

However, the "b:v" option isn't listed as supported in the drop-down menu. Could it please be done for the next release?

"b:v" is a video bitrate
add "b=2M" to ovcopts

thank you but according to the link I posted the full command is supposed to be "-b:v 0"

Would "b=0" work?

have no idea
if "-b:v 0" works as ffmpeg param then "--ovcopts=b=0" must work as a mpv param

Well I suppose I can try. Would appreciate if you'd also check, it is part of Libvpx functions and should be recognised by your programme.

Any help at all with this?
