    I have a large number of files to convert.

    I drop the DV file on source format, select the preset I made and hit encode.

    Since there's currently no batch feature, I go on to the next file etc. (I tried quickbatcher, which didn't work because of the same problem described below, otherwise it would be a nice solution for me).

    Whenever I drop a new source file on FFmpeg the Target format settings that I've chosen via a preset I made, change to a complete random setting. For each next file I have to manually select the correct preset again before hitting encode.

    Is this a bug? Or is there a thought behind this behaviour?

    I also find this really frustrating. As a result of this (let's call it a bug), it keeps reverting to the default settings for the type, such as mp4, instead of the preset. I don't think it's random, it is set based on the input file characteristics, but it would certainly be helpful if it would stick to the preset.
