Hello, i am using MP4 format as output for my videos. But the problem is when i for example, transcode a flv video 100MB in to MP4 it increases in a size for about 150MB. Is there any tweaks on how to decrease the output MP4 size?

The only option you have is to decrease the bitrate, but you need to find a compromise as if the uploaded video is very high quality but you transcode it using a bitrate of 600 Kbps, the output video will look very bad.
