Since the PAR option doesn't work when the iPod encoder is selected, it would be better to have it disabled so that the user wouldn't select it believing it works. This patch for r791 does just that:
The code is ugly: it shouldn't be necessary to pass the mux and vcodec to the PictureController, it should only poll the Controller for a "isIPodEncoding", but I didn't want to change anything else in the way they interface.

Isnt this test in PrepareJob? If so, wont this only get called when the job has already been configured and will be queued/started? I dont have a copy here with me to check it out.

I created that topic. According to that, PAR works on the iPod if that patch is applied, and that is not in the official trunk because 1. its ugly, 2. it doesnt work with PAL DVDs and 3. developers dont see much use in it. Since this is not supported anyway, I think its better to make it clear by disabling the field, so that confusions like this will not occur.
