Arrested Develeopment 301 - Cabin Show, for an iPod
Apple - QuickTime - Tutorials - Creating Video for iPod
So with the new video iPod released I decided I'd try my Quicktime Pro to convert one of the newest Arrested Develeopments to the .m4v . The process is pretty easy. The tutorial on the link above makes it really easy to do with the newest Quicktime. The file I started with was a 175MB xvid encoded .avi file. Encoding it with quicktime took about 2 hours and resulted in a 112MB m4v file. The file works great in iTunes, but viewing it in full screen is really pixalated. On an iPod it would probably look great. If you watch it in the lower left artwork viwer in iTunes it looks good, and I am assuming that is how it would look on an iPod. Now all I have to do is wait for someone to hack the 60GB iPod color to play videos and I'll be able to watch them on the go.
