First of all, thanks for a wonderful software !! Great job !

Two things I have wondered about....

1)
I made a backup of my Band of Brothers-DVD the other day and noticed that the Aspect Ratio was different for each episode. 1.78, 1.73, 1.70 (should be 1.78 I think). I wondered if you perhaps could have some dropdown-menu in the advanced settings were you could choose the AR (1.78, 1.85, 2.35, 2.40 and so forth) so that AutoGK would know which AR to aim for and then choose the resolution so that it would be as near the right AR as possible. (I know that you can't get exakt AR for 1.85 and 2.35...)

2)
Occasionally I have to encode a DivX more than once. (When I want to change size, or perhaps had choosen the wrong subtitles, or change codec or sound settings) Anyway.... It would be great if you could re-use the old files in the gk_tmp directory (the Ac3/mp3, subtitles, d2v). It would save some time...

Keep up the good work !! And exuse me for my poor english (I'm from Sweden, it's not my fault :)

I think it already does the best job on choosing the best AR
The fact is you are not always able to keep exact AR and still get height/width as mod 8/mod 16 (I'm not sure about the values...) which are required due to compability reasons I believe
I can't manage to understand this obsession about exact AR
After all, it's not like your circles will look as ovals, is it? :rolleyes:
