No, definitely the other way round, from RFC2396

"Using angle brackets around each URI is especially recommended as a delimiting style for URI that contain whitespace."

Sometimes it just b0rks anyway, probably a Thunderbird thing ...

At the risk of sounding as if I am talking to the retarded, you are aware that it is possible to create your own preset in Handbrake, aren't you? I use it to create a variety of mp4 and mkv outputs and it's fit for purpose.
