Similar to the thing I attached? That's quiet similar to a configuration file, 
no?

With the current patch, you'd need a profile-file for each device though. If
they would all be stored in some predefined directory -such 
as /usr/share/ffmpeg/profiles- I would not see that as a true problem. 
Ofcourse it is also possible to add sections to the file, something like:

[K750i]
b=192k
s=220x176
ar=64k
vcodec=mpeg4
acodec=aac

[N770]
b=800k
s=320x192
ar=128k
vcodec=mpeg4
acodec=mp3

...

Having it in the header would require me to recompile/relink for each 
addition... :) And endusers would not be able to contribute as easily as with 
profile files.

With friendly regards,
Takis
