Hello everybody. (I'm new) _o/

For begining, I would like say Pitivi is a great video editor and I
realy like-it (Very good UI, using GStreamer, Python ans GTK+, etc...).

Yesterday I read the Roadmap of Gnome 3:  http://live.gnome.org/RoadMap

And I see, in "Gnome Media" part: «Better and usable encoding profiles»

Great, a successor of actualy "gnome-audio-profiles-properties". 

Ok, I can make this with PyGTK. A simple Window to chose audio or video
encoding profile. When you clic on on "edit" button, you can chose audio
and/or video encoder, muxer and, why not, many filters. And if you clic
on "properties" of an encoder/muxer/filter, you have a window auto
generated with all properties of the GST Element using. 

Great, no? But wait. It already exist, somwhere, a similar UI with
similar options. Yes, in Pitivi. Precisely in "Properties of project". 

This is the idea: 
- Split Pitivi on 2 softwares: Pitivi remain Pitivi and "Properties of
project" become "gnome-media-profiles-properties".
- "Gnome-media-profiles-properties" have the list of audio only profiles
and the list of audio and video profiles for main window.
- When you have selected a profile and clic to "edit" button, the
present-day "Properties of project", of Pitivi, is open to edit the
profile.
- All profiles are saved in GSetting (the successor of present-day GConf
for Gnome 3). Every profiles are saved in full format (GST Elements
unsing in profile (muxer, encoder, etc...) are each an entry in DB and
their properties too) and in GStreamer pipe string
(like:"audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! flacenc name=enc").
- Add a simply "profile selector" to replace the present-day "Properties
of project" in Pitivi.

What do you think about this little idea? Great or not?
