-level AVoption does not set refs with libx264

Reported by: llogan Owned by:
Priority: normal Component: avcodec
Version: git-master Keywords: libx264

Description

I expect the -level libx264 AVoption to have the same behavior as --level in x264. One thing it should do is choose an appropriate number of reference frames for the specified level.

-level 3.0

This problem, or one very similar, still exists. Using "-level 41" sets some x264 options, but not all. With "-level 4.1" it works correctly. The x264 binary accepts either and outputs the correct number of refs. For example, if I use -preset veryslow and -level 41, the reference frames should be limited to 4 (with 1080p video), but instead it uses ref=16.
