Quality
Motion
Describes the average motion in
the picture. Applies a weighting
factor to other video quality
parameters.
In general, when the Motion setting
is greater, the weighting factor
tends to be less. It is assumed that
quality is more critical when there is
less motion because your eyes can
focus on the details.

Image
Complexity
Describes the amount of details in
the picture. Details in the image are
generally caused by object
boundaries. For example, a picture
consisting of a grass field with
flowers will present a lot of detail,
while a picture of a person in a
meeting room will present less
detail.
A higher Complexity setting allows
greater variation in video quality
inside the same picture (i.e., in
different regions of the picture).
When there is a somewhat constant
video quality across the picture and
video frames (i.e., the complexity is
lower), the step usually remains
small.
