I would like to have a bit more flexibility on the device profiles and information on the transcoded files:

(1) I know that device profiles can be very complex, but it would be nice to be able to create a GUI based custom profile which would allow you to specify one single output format. For example, specify file format, video codec, minimum and maximum resolution, audio codec, sample rate, channels.

(2) The information on the Properties>General and Properties>Video tabs are also available on the Properties Pane. It would be nice of there is a seperate Pane with the transcoded file information; not only for which devices the file has been transcoded to, but also the properties of the transcoded file (e.g. format, codecs, bit rates, resolution).

Thanks for the suggestions.

(1) We do have planned a device profile editor that displays all formats and attributes that a device profile supports. It should also let you add/remove formats.

(2) The Transcoding tab on the Properties dialog does list all the transcoded files for a particular file in your Mezzmo library. However, it does not list the properties of the transcoded file(s). That's a good idea and we'll implement that for a future version.
