Hmm, the -V option in lame behaves a bit differently. In the current 
implementation of oggenc, you specify the target bitrate you roughly 
want. This works about like the --abr setting in lame. There is 
nothing like lame's -V in oggenc, does someone think there should be? 
I've been encoding my oggs with -b 192, earlier I used lame -V1.

Or were you looking something like the -q switch in lame? Something 
that mainly affects to the encoding speed and resulting quality, and 
not that much to the resulting bitrate/filesize. That'd probably be 
useful in some occasions, especially when fast encoding speed is 
necessary.
