If you're referring to that you can't select other formats in the device
properties, you're probably missing some gstreamer elements to encode
that, the N900 profile is included in Banshee for some time now. And
works for me. There's one issue I sent a patch about that made Banshee
not transcode some files in uncommon formats [1].

See if `gst-inspect lame` returns anything - if not, you're missing the
'lame' plugin for gstreamer that does mp3 encoding.

You could also check out `banshee-1 --debug` and look for lines like
this one:

> GStreamer pipeline does not run: audioconvert ! fluwmaenc bitrate=64000 vbr=false ! fluasfmux

It means that some of the plugins are unavailable (in above example it's
fluwmaenc and fluasfmux - Fluendo's WMA plugins).

Come to irc://#banshee irc freenode net if you need more help.
