OK, my highly placed insider (seriously!) at Apple podcasting says the following: "Not a great answer here. The QuickTime people tell us that the latest version of Quicktime Pro only creates iPod-playable files with the Export to iPod option. They're working on a fix for the next version, but

[videoblogging] Re: do you have a video iPod?

Likewise I can see why you use handbrake, in terms of more options and ability to see the effects of cropping etc. In general I am annoyed, this stuff remains too complex, by and large. Ive just been playing with the latest iSquint and it seems to pop mov files out somethines (when encoding to h2

Re: [videoblogging] Re: do you have a video iPod?

Thank you Steve. I totally agree with your point of view. After restarting the 1.2.3 iSquint is working now. I will try 1.3 test next. The crop in iSquint is a bit "in the dark" if you don't have cropping experience with farious EyeTV recordings which fall all over the map of what the cropp

[videoblogging] Re: do you have a video iPod?

Is that comparing 3ivx to mpeg4 from isquint or h264 from isquint? Its not bad at both, but Id agree that 3ivx is a very nice mpeg4 encoder, its hard to beat it for mpeg 4 quality when the right settings are used. Were you using the isquint startup defaults or did you stick the quality option up?

[videoblogging] Re: do you have a video iPod?

Yeah, it's a bug. When I tried it I had the same problem. I'm not sure what was going on, but when I ticked the "add to itunes" box it showed up in iTunes. I'm not impressed with the default settings. I get much better results from 3ivx. Bill Streeter LO-FI SAINT LOUIS www.lofistl.com --- In

[videoblogging] Re: do you have a video iPod?

No its not a joke. I dont know why it didnt work for you, nor why you are so quick to assume that things that dont work for you must be a cruel joke. Maybe you found a bug or it somehow didnt like your source footage for some reason. Anyway I will continue to reccomend isquint because its free and

[videoblogging] Re: do you have a video iPod?

Its a good strategy but Im not sure whether this option gives you mpeg4 files or h264 files? In the past it was possible to get a mpeg4 file that works on both the ipod and PSP, but h264 more problematic (because PSP uses h264 main profile and ipod uses baseline h264 profile). ffmpegX recently add

Yes Steve. The interface. I love the Handbrake interface. But I was unaware of iSquint until this post by you. I am not always on top of the latest stuff. Thanks for letting me know. I will look into it and hopefully become an iSquint convert. http://www.isquint.org/ -- Taylor Barcroft Sant

[videoblogging] Re: do you have a video iPod?

Any particular reason you continue to promote this time-consuming process, rather than simply using iSquint, which cuts out all the intermediate DVD steps, and uses the same kind of mpeg4 & h264 compression that is available in handbrake? Steve of Elbows --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Kung

Hello Steve, and everyone else who has chimed in on this. The thing is, people are saying they can watch previous episodes of ours that were encoded using exactly the same method as the latest ones (at least I don't think I changed any settings between then and now). There's some talk of the diff
