For highest quality, try Constant quality at a value of 16.

Did you read this? http://www.animemusicvideos.org/guides/ ... 64gui.html
It explains all the settings, though its slightly out of date with the most recent version.
I would recommend you make sure you get the most recent version though (its linked from that page)

The only setting you really might want to mess with is the quantizer. I found the default value good for most cases, but you can lower it to get better quality but a larger filesize. I think setting it as low as 16 might be overkill though.
