Didn't know if you guys had seen this Firefox extension from Firefogg.org,
but I was just on vacation with a new video camera that produces .mov files.
I was looking for something to convert them to .ogv for use with HTML5 and I
came across Firefogg. It's built using ffmpeg and the controls handle what
would otherwise be command line input. I was able to get a 5 minute long
720P video of about 290 MB down to 424x240 at 300 kbps for a 15 MB file and
it looks great at that size. It is suppose to be able to convert them to
WebM as well, but I haven't tried that yet.

I had tried Miro Video Converter, but it wasn't customizable enough and
produced larger files than I wanted.
