Bob’s iPod & iPhone Video Conversion Basics

Several of my friends have recently picked up new iPhones and one of them asked for advice on converting video to put onto the iPhone, so I thought it might be more beneficial to post it up here as opposed to replying directly so everyone could potentially benefit from it

For "simple" files, I do the following:

ffmpeg -i "[input]" -acodec libfaac -ab 128kb -vcodec mpeg4 -b 1200kb -mbd 2 -flags +4mv -trellis 2 -aic 2 -cmp 2 -subcmp 2 -s 480x320 -title [name] "[output].mp4"

Just throwin' that out there. There might be a flag to render subs, I dunno.
