+Render presets in \CGG{} should work Out Of the Box. You can still configure the \textit{Global Options} and \textit{Private Options} manually. Finding the combination of parameters that best suits your needs, or simply finding working (\textit{legal}) combinations, requires studying each codec in depth. You can start by looking in Wikipedia until you get to download and study the \textit{white papers} of the codecs of interest. In any case, you must then start a long experimental phase, trying presets with different configurations or creating new ones, until you get satisfactory results. If you create new presets it is a good idea to make them known on the mailing list ({\small \url{https://lists.cinelerra-gg.org/mailman/listinfo/cin}}) or on the MantisBT Bug Tracker ({\small \url{https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/bugtracker/my_view_page.php}}) so that they can be integrated into subsequent versions of \CGG{}.
