Thinking about it, I had the following idea: In Kdenlive settings, we could have a new tab allowing users to define up to 3 "preferred profiles", which would be pairs of MLT and rendering profiles. Once this profile pairs are defined, a new option would appear in the project tree context menu to convert a clip to this format (and add it to project if wanted). This way, the converted clip would have the same name as original. We could also have a new entry in "File" menu to convert several files at once or all files in a folder. What do you think? regards jb
