When it finished, it gave me files called .ipod.xml and .ipod.mov so  
I'm guessing it didn't pull the metadata from mysql correctly. I'll  
take a look at the query when I get some time and see if I can fix it  
up. Not sure what's different between my data and yours. I just  
renamed the files and hand-edited the xml for now.
