The idea is interesting. The tools are already there, I think this could be done without many efforts. MeGUI seems to get close to this idea. BTW, Is FAAC still in developpement?

Sorry :D . I'm too optimistic. The idea is simple but that require hard work to be put it into practice.

Mplayer/mencoder is pretty much like that. It integrates x264 and faac with some mp4 muxing code though I don't know whether it supports subtitles and other stuff.

no subs in mencoder and it uses libavformat for mp4 and that library is seriously bugged. ask bond for details...

And for the love of God, don't make it Windows only! There's enough of that already.

@Elias: I think Sagittaire just means one program 'to rule them all', i.e. put them all into the one program, the way RealProducer does, and the way mencoder does.

What linux lacks are various GUIs for the encoding tools. EVERYTHING (just about) is CLI only. Get's to be a pain in the butt sometimes, especially when I come here and see three GUIs for every single encoder out.

>>EVERYTHING (just about) is CLI only. This is more advantage, than disadvanatage. It is not extremely hard task to code some GUI for gnome for example, while if codec has no command line you can not fix it that simple :)

Maybe if I had a decent CLI guide... that might make a good guide to have here at DOOM9. We got all sorts of other guides, but they're ALL on using Windows GUI programs.
