Agreed.  It would be very nice to be able to run under different 
qualities for different purposes.  And for the intended use, it would 
also be nice to even be able to tweak it at runtime so that we can cut 
back the quality if the CPU load is too high.

I could see for example that perhaps music might end up using a higher 
quality than video (on the dubious assumption that we are more likely to 
have spare CPU when there is no video)

I think this looks extremely promising though.  Thanks Michael! 

By the way, without looking are there significant differences between 
CVS and a recent libavcodec as would be pulled down by a packaged 
mplayer?  I'm just trying to understand if something critical was fixed 
recently for example?

Thanks!
