Please read this:

I originally wrote that for LameXP, but it applies to Simple x264 Launcher in the same way, of course.

Saving to same directory more logical.
The output file is saved to where you have chosen. You can select the output file when adding a new job...

Because the Profile is defined by which H.264 features you use. x264 sets the lowest possible Profile that supports all features you are using - setting an even higher one would be pointless.

So, if you are using only "Main" (and "Baseline") Profile features, i.e. no "High" Profile features, then x264 will set the "Main" Profile, since a "Main" Profile capable decoder suffices to playback that stream!

The "--profile" option can be used to force a specific Profile. But this only works to enforce a lower Profile! It won't pretend a higher Profile, when that isn't needed at all...

You almost always want to leave the "Profile" option on the default "Auto" setting. As soon as you use any "High" Profile features, you will see that x264 is going to set the proper Profile automatically
