It has been some time since I used it, but for that reason I liked 
transcode better. It provided some standard settings - such as for VCD 
and DVD. Don't know what the current stage of that program is though.

I wonder myself. If you tried to compile it - there seems to be a dozen 
of dependencies and different libraries which partly do the same. I 
wonder, why there is not one big library - or maybe two for competition. 
Would simplify things a lot.
