is there a tutorial or guide on calculating bitrate when setting up compression? |

use GKnot
go to 'Bitrate tab':
- enter the length of your movie - choose your audio bitrate by using the dropp-down button (or even better: first transcode your audio stream and then load your encoded stream into GKnot) - calculate your frame overhead by hitting the right spot - and finally look over to the line: Average Bitrate
that's it...

and in case of bidirectionnal encoding ? (i think it isn't constant, but maybe...) |

good point but a miscalculation of ~1MB is acceptable

B-Frames have nothing to do with the bitrate ( or at least they shouldn't have in theory; a bad B-Frame implementation may influence the bitrate though )
it's VBR what causes "miscalculation" but modern VBR algorithms work precisly enough so even VBR shouldn't be a problem. Like Sill said: 1mb shouldn't really matter. |
