#1416 closed enhancement (fixed)

Description
Since the transcoding profile is set at the time the recording is scheduled and there is no easy way to change that after the fact I created this patch to allow the transcoding profile to be changed when Start Transcoding is chosen from the Job Options menu.
There are some minor issues though: doesn't affect the transcode OSD menu, or the 'x' command it always highlights the last item in the list first, why is that?
I'll probably try and add the same choices to the OSD menu, but leave 'x' alone.
I tested this against a slightly older version of svn, and 0.19. It applies and compiles against head but I haven't tested that specific version yet.

This patch will not work for people who (legitimately) who much with the database to add more transcoding profiles for themselves (besides the canned "Low", "Medium", and "High" settings). Perhaps the options should have been populated based on values from the database? I don't know how you would them communicate that as a "action" parameter, though. I also don't really care about this feature. But I'm just commenting for the record ...

I've got a version of the patch that adds similar options to the OSD menu. I need to clean it up just a tiny bit and I'll attach that instead.
