ffmpeg (libavcodec) warning: encoded frame too large

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to use libavcodec (ffmpeg) to encode raw pixel data to mp4 format. Every thing goes well and I'm getting .avi file with decent quality but some times the codec gives "encoded frame too large" warning. And when ever it does that, a part of some frames (usually bottom portion of the frame) look garbled or all mixed up. Can any one tell me when this warning is given. Following are the settings I'm using for encoder:

qmax = 6;
qmin = 2;
bit_rate = 200000; // if I increase this, I get more warnings. 
width = 1360;
height = 768;
time_base.den = 15; // frames per second
time_base.num = 1;
gop_size = 48;
pix_fmt = PIX_FMT_YUV420P;

Regards,
