Thanks to Jeton for the great WinFF turorial!. I think though that the fps settings for 4:3 or 16:9 are preset at 23.98 and 29.97 respectively in the custom presets.xml file?. So it doesn't matter what mode you use it will default to those settings, without having to put in you own (custom) settings in WinFF.

Yeah, the frame rate input is optional as it's already in the .xml file. However as the MPEG Player plugin gets more imrovements, sometimes you might try to add a higher fps in that field in order to get a smoother video.

This might be wishful thinking on my part but I think that my videos are playing better with each Rockbox upgrade.
