Remove 'encoder' inside the brackets.

"It is required that qmax >= qmin". Ideally, this should be fully 
verbal, but will do.

Move the default to after the table.

What are the permissible values? Is the default dynamic or fixed?

If this refers to the bitstream flags, make that clearer, and use the 
exact labels e.g. profile_idc. Place each sentence after its option entry.

"
Set lookahead depth (in frames). Range is @var{-1 - 256} where -1 
indicates the value is unset. Default is -1.
In rate-control mode @var{vbr}, if unset, the encoder will set this to 
the intra period value. In rate-control mode @var{cqp},
it is recommended that look-ahead depth be set.
"

What does the encoder do in cqp mode if value is unset? Are there 
specific guidelines for optimum la-depth value, in each rc mode?
If there are significant tradeoffs, in terms of latency or resource 
usage, mention those.

"
A preset setting the quality vs. density tradeoff that the encoder 
should make.
Range is @var{0-12}. Lower values favour quality over density. Default is 9.

Move default to after the table.

Double-check, but I think this end directive is meant to close the table 
for the private options and is not correctly placed. The one after hdr 
is the correct one.

"Flags input as having high dynamic range. Default is 0 (disabled)."
