Why trying to find a solution, where no solution is needed.

I know the various mencoder based solutions for Linux (tablet-encode...) and they are quite good except that they are lacking a decent GUI (yeah I know there are some minimalistic GUIs available).

I think it would be more than sufficient to keep us Linux users happy, if Nokia would provide some nice GUI which uses mencoder to produce videos in decent quality that are guaranteed to work on the default media player.

No need to distribute mencoder or any codes along with the GUI. I guess every Linux user is able to install mencoder from the repositories of his preferred distribution.
