I like this idea.  I just the other day had a telecine'd movie which
*really* needed some specific config to get the ratio right.  A plugin
to create an fxd for a file, with some inteligent option-like menu would
be great.

There have beeb many good, no great suggestions for improving freevo. 
Who want to volunteer to colate a list a ideas?  Alot of them have been
suggested a number fo times by a number of different users..  Meaning
most fo them could probably help to create them if only they knew there
were other people willing to help in the process...

Manu freevo users don't have a keyboard.. (at least I don't).
