You don't need any plug-in to accomplish this, simply post the embedded HTML code for the Youtube clip in your blog post. I don't use the Wordpress player, I just embed the Youtube HTML code. > 2. create an itunes-friendly rss feed so people can find and > subscribe to the video podcast via itunes.

That and Podcasting Plugin by TSG are the two most popular I believe. > 3. when an iphone or ipad or other device without flash views the > site, show an html5 version of the H.264 video No idea, sorry. I've had no complaints from any of my viewers about this. About 1/3rd of my audience watch via the podcast version, but no complaints about not being to view the web site. > Additional notes: > > * I would like to only encode the videos once to H.264 640x480 and > upload them to both youtube & archive.org > * archive.org will be the source for the video links from the podcast > feed 640x480 is quite a big podcast size. I use 480x270 16:9 format for the podcast version (encoded at either 200 or 250 kbps), and 1280x720 16:9 for the Youtube version. I use Handbrake to convert the videos to suitable MP4, M4V format My site is www.eevblog.com if you want to see how I do things. Dave.
