I'll take your word on that. However, that would still be an issue if I went to the other formats (Xvid, x264, etc.), correct? By going MPEG-2 I would at least get the benefits that scharfis_brain laid out. Regardless, hopefully I am still out five years or so before I get on the HD bandwagon.

Yes, I guess that does quality as batch but was looking for something batch-ier. But I guess I can't use AutoGK now that everyone has convinced me to go MPEG2.
