Here are nuvexportrc settings/profile that will produce high-res ipod
exports:

<ffmpeg::MP4>

    mp4_codec = h264

    noise_reduction = no
    deinterlace     = yes
    multipass       = yes
    v_bitrate       = 768
    a_bitrate       = 128

    width        = 528
    height       = 480

    mp4_fps = auto

</ffmpeg::MP4>


<profile::goodeats>

    title       = good eats

    export_prog = ffmpeg
    mode        = mp4

    crop_pct    = 0
    crop_top    = 1
    crop_right  = 1
    crop_left   = 1

    width        = 528
    height       = 480

</profile::goodeats>

Then I can just use `nuvexport --profile goodeats` and all of my good
eats episodes show up in my target directory as mp4 files, ready to dump
into my ipod.

The wacky res is due to the fact that I'm pulling SD off of firewire,
and that's the res that the file comes in on (other shows are even
stranger, like 352x480)
