Comment (by rogerdpack):

 Hmm...

 I guess for most of us, we want to specify an mpg output and have it "just
 work"...we don't even know what a VBV buffer is, nor what size is
 appropriate...hmm...

 perhaps the error message can be reworded...something like this?

 "VBV buffer size not set, using default buffer size of 130KB, muxing may
 fail for large streams"

 or something.
 (I also noticed a "FIXME this is probably too small" for the default
 https://github.com/ffmpeg/ffmpeg/blob/master/libavformat/mpegenc.c#L390
 maybe the default could be made larger at the same time, just for good
 measure).
 Thanks!
