You have a syntax error
-b for video bitrate setting
-ab for audio bitrate setting
What are you trying to gain? You can't make a lossy MPEG better by
recompressing it at a higher bitrate. It's actually going to get worse,
since it's going to get decoded, then another lossy recompression is
going to happen.
I see!! Thanks for the info!
