I agree, the download resolution is just to high for the itouch, using
--mode iphone I would think would ensure you got the right video for
the touch.

If you don't want to download twice then ffmpeg can transcode to a
version that will play on the touch, winff is a good gui for ffmpeg
with apple presets, works on windows and linux not sure about mac.
