I can't seem to get isquint to work properly. I have been using ffmpegX. It's free, just do a search for it on versiontracker. While i haven't loaded anything onto my wife's ipod yet(christmas gift, so it's not open yet) I have had no problem getting the videos to load into itunes, so I imagine it would not be a problem loading them into the ipod.
