Thanks Dale. The reason I wanted to use ffmpeg was because it looks like it
should allow encoding for iPods. I want to be able to put my kid's shows on
their iPods and I was hoping to do the encoding in one step. If I can't get
ffmpeg working, I'll just continue on with my current approach...encoding
with transcode then copy to a Windows pc and reencode there.
It appears to me that ffmpeg changed syntax quite some time ago nuvexport
was not changed to work with ffmpeg.
