Yep, sorry I just upgraded my system and astyle 1.24 changed some default 
indentation settings which messed up the commit. I just updated the profile 
detection so that it now uses the aspect ratio and shows a list of matching 
profiles to select.

Currently, that detection is only done for the very first clip added to the 
project, and I just added an entry in the "Project" menu to find profile from 
currently selected clip.

Ok, I will see if I can make use of it when it is committed.
