heya, I'm new to mediaportal and am having fun playing with all the great options. So far this plugin looks great, but i just had a few questions.

1. I see there is an option to autodetect aspect, but then you have to manually select the resolution (size). Is there a way to autodetect size too? I did a test on a wide screened video, but it set it to 640x480. What i'd LIKE is a way for it to transcode widescreen shows and keep the right sizes. IE, if its 640x384, it converts it to 320x192. Keeping the correct aspect.

2. Is there a way to define the output directory rather than just using the source video's directory? I'd like to put all the transcoded videos in one directory.

3. Integration with MP-tvseries plugin would be fantastic. I would be using the transcode plugin almost exclusivly for iPod transcoding for my tv shows. For now, I can't access any of them because they're all in the mp-tvseries database.

Thanks for the hard work fabrice!
