MPEG Streamclip, free download, has an ipod setting with options for multipass and bit-rate limiting. I like it, but I have no ipod to test it out. MPEG Streamclip has a 2-gig input limit, fine for joining and transcoding from VOB, if you have DVD sources for your COUHF show. I run into trouble with my AVI exports from Virtualdub. Uncompressed RGB allows me up to 90 seconds or some-such. I get 9 minutes from Panasonic DV codec. However, transcoding to XviD at best quality could be suitable as an intermediate on the way to h.264 for your feature length movies.
