    It's useful if you have portable device that just support up to specific profile and level number. Computer software players supports all profiles/levels but a higher profile/level may require a faster computer.

    Do these settings affect quality? I mainly use XMedia to encode vid to watch on my HTPC (Zotac Zbox ID34). Should separate settings be used to encode DVD or BR, etc?

    Go to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.262/MPEG-2_Part_2
    Scroll Down about 3/4 th of the way and look for a table: titled: Common MPEG-2 Profile/Level combinations
    They do, as you can see from the table. DVD is MP@ML, etc.
