Broken, breaks QuickTime - Version: 1.1, 1/30/2009 10:54AM PST

Exports a single white frame and nothing else. Breaks QuickTime's H.264 exporter. How do I remove this piece of crap?

How can I get x264 encoded Videos to work on my iPod? - Version: 1.1, 5/1/2007 12:42PM PST

Hello!

x264 truly produces much higher quality videos, than Apple's encoder. But whatever settings I try, it won't play back on my iPod Video (5G - 60 GB).

Has anyone an idea how to make the right settings, which container to use, etc.? Encoding time does not matter to me, I just want the best quality per bitrate and iPod-Playback of the videos. Please help!!

Thanks for any Info!
Regards,
Stefan

I'd love to try it, but it just crashes Quicktime as soon as I choose it as an export option?
