Yes, entire "output pixel format" selection is a workaround for VFW codecs. VFW defines no protocol to find out what format codec "wants" as the input.
With updated codecs like x264 I move the format decision to codec itself so there is no need and possibility to repeat this selection in vdub gui.
In theory, I could also do it for the lagarith codec, but in reality I don't want to spend time on it. Btw what is the benefit of lagarith vs utvideo?

Maybe good idea to rename "autoselect" to something less misleading. For me "auto" sounds like "smart choice/do not touch".
