alright, I made the first setting profiles:
Code:
// Profiles
        private void pc_base()
        {
            sCmdLine = "--no-fast-pskip --no-psnr --progress --thread-input --threads " + Environment.ProcessorCount;
        }

        private void pc_fast()
        {
            sCmdLine += "--min-keyint 12 --min-keyint 600 --bime ";
            sCmdLine += "--direct auto --weightb --bframes 3 ";
            sCmdLine += "--filter 1:1 ";

            sCmdLine += "--me dia --subme 1 --ref 0 ";
            sCmdLine += "--analyse \"none\" ";
        }

        private void pc_low()
        {
            sCmdLine += "--min-keyint 12 --min-keyint 600 --bime ";
            sCmdLine += "--direct auto --weightb --bframes 3 ";
            sCmdLine += "--filter 1:1 ";

            sCmdLine += "--me umh --subme 6 --b-rdo --ref 8 --mixed-refs ";
            sCmdLine += "--analyse \"all\" --trellis 1 --8x8dct ";
        }

        private void pc_medium()
        {
            sCmdLine += "--min-keyint 12 --min-keyint 600 --bime ";
            sCmdLine += "--direct auto --weightb --bframes 3 ";
            sCmdLine += "--filter 1:1 ";

            sCmdLine += "--me umh --subme 7 --b-rdo --ref 12 --mixed-refs ";
            sCmdLine += "--analyse \"all\" --trellis 1 --8x8dct ";
        }

        private void pc_high()
        {
            sCmdLine += "--min-keyint 12 --min-keyint 600 --bime ";
            sCmdLine += "--direct auto --weightb --bframes 3 ";
            sCmdLine += "--filter 1:1 ";

            sCmdLine += "--me umh --subme 7 --b-rdo --ref 16 --mixed-refs ";
            sCmdLine += "--analyse \"all\" --trellis 2 --8x8dct ";
        }

        private void ipod_fast()
        {
            sCmdLine += "--no-cabac --keyint 900 --min-keyint 12 --nr 150 --level 1.3 --bime ";
            sCmdLine += "--filter 0:0 --bframes 0 ";

            sCmdLine += "--me dia --subme 1 --ref 0 ";
            sCmdLine += "--analyse \"none\" ";
        }

        private void ipod_low()
        {
            sCmdLine += "--no-cabac --keyint 900 --min-keyint 12 --nr 150 --level 1.3 --bime ";
            sCmdLine += "--filter 0:0 --bframes 0 ";

            sCmdLine += "--me umh --subme 6 --ref 8 --mixed-refs ";
            sCmdLine += "--analyse \"all\" --trellis 1 ";
        }

        private void ipod_medium()
        {
            sCmdLine += "--no-cabac --keyint 900 --min-keyint 12 --nr 150 --level 1.3 --bime ";
            sCmdLine += "--filter 0:0 --bframes 0 ";

            sCmdLine += "--me umh --subme 7 --ref 12 --mixed-refs ";
            sCmdLine += "--analyse \"all\" --trellis 1 ";
        }

        private void ipod_high()
        {
            sCmdLine += "--no-cabac --keyint 900 --min-keyint 12 --nr 150 --level 1.3 --bime ";
            sCmdLine += "--filter 0:0 --bframes 0 ";

            sCmdLine += "--me umh --subme 7 --ref 16 --mixed-refs ";
            sCmdLine += "--analyse \"all\" --trellis 2 ";
        }
Low profil is supposed to be for P4 3Ghz or AMD64 3000+, while medium aim for dual core.

And what about high? How will it compare to RA's typical default profile?

RA Medium --> xA Low
RA High --> ~xA Medium

for High, dunno, a good dual core?

It'll work probably. Now, will it encode fast? Lets just say you might have to leave your computer on overnight.

Probably your xAnime high profile is suitable for computer with the following spec...

You've been smart enough not to use .NET 1.0 (or 1.1 even), that's cool ! You'll have much less of a hassle when it comes to event handling ^^

This is why xAnime should be fool-proof
As long as it supports "drag-and-drop" (any files) and auto-generates a minimalistic avs script (avisource if avi, directshowsource for anything else + custom resizing + hqdn3D() since it rocks on anime stuff + Undot()) I think it will be enough

Using avisynth for audio encoding would be a pretty good idea since you wouldn't need to have anything else installed than avisynth to run xAnime =) (cli apps would be in xAnime's working directory, unless you add a config panel to specify the cli's paths)

Just my two cents, but it's a good idea to keep things simple

It will be. Everything will be automatic. Dual audio and dual sub will be stripped down to 1 audio and 1 sub, if the output is for iPod, sub will be hardcoded in video stream. Everything will go via AVS, video and audio, for better comptability.

Hmmm, I just reached around 30 fps (although it remains to be seen if the speed remains that with other files) for RA Medium Profile, so I guess the profiles are okay, as long as it gives better quality!
...Erm, although, I guess that the most quality loss comes from the already poor sources =/
The everything automatic sounds terrific to me!

events? handling?
With framework 1.0/1.1, some events (mouse clicks, keyboard keypress, adding items to a listview, etc) aren't triggered when they should be.

I've had to use threads and global variables to sort things out.
With framework 2.0 there is nearly always a "before click" and an "after click" event or a "before update" and an "after update" event, which gives you some very precise error-handling possibilities. Needless to say that you will have great time programming simple things rather than finding workarounds

Bad source is bad to start with, with every codec.

Well, maybe... but then I would need a real sound card, too, huh? These speaks have faithfully served me and continue to do so even now!
