IMHO the only universal format is mp4... but I don't want to start a

I remember changes: bit rate become quality numbers and now there is 
only a confusing slider and no slider for presets

confusing because it's grayed out for most of my own profiles.

verifying this, I see that you have the slider active for internal setup 
in main render windows, but no slider if you hit "edit" (pencil icon).

this "edit" window is specially confusing, because what mean the double 
lines "quality/default quality"? which one is used to render? in the 
first line there are often several values?

Why is speed options an editable windows?

MLT options are not that easy to master :-( - specially the relation 
between quality and presets (speed)

if necessary, I Ok to participate to any work on the subject (as tester, 
not programmer)

thanks
