you shoud NOT use the autoq value at all.
it is for decoders. for slow machines (where downscaling may help) it's
always 0.

anyway, value of autoq depends on a-v desync and idle cpu time. and for
hardware decoders (or -benchmark...), they are unpredictable...

autoq will increase postprocess filter level if there is idle cpu (up to
the value specified with -autoq <n>) and will decrease down to 1 if no
idle cpu left. it will disable all postproc (q=0) when a-v gets desyncing.

try it.
