Hi
According to techspansion, which is who made it, it seems like he just didn't feel like maintaining it anymore. I did find a download link for the latest version though and I'm giving it a try since it is freeware, I didn't know that either since no mention of that fact is made on techspansion's site. I'm converting one of my tv episodes now, we'll see how it does.

Thanks for that info. So I wonder if those download links then are for archived copies? Interesting. Do you know why it was discontinued? Bugs maybe.

Hi
iSquint has been discontinued along with visualhub, they're made by
the same person.

Maybe this one? http://mac.majorgeeks.com/download5129.html

It's called "ISquint" and it's a video converter for Ipods. Not sure
if it does what you need though. Closest I could find in th
Majorgeek Mac downloads.

Hi everyone
I'm looking for a video converter for my iPod. I have lots of DVDs
that I own that I've encoded to MP4, but I encoded them so they could be watched on normal screens. As a result, my iPod Classic won't play them. I'm looking for a converter that does this conversion and also 
preserves my chapter marks. This second point is the key, as I know
of
several video converters--quicktime pro, iTunes itself, Viddyup, and visualhub (discontinued). None of these, however, seem to be able to 
preserve chapter marks and I really don't feel like extracting them
manually then using QT pro to put them back. I'd really prefer to do the conversions in a batch, which QT pro doesn't allow even though I 
can manually re-add the chapter marks later. Anyone know of a video
converter that will do both of these? Or alternatively, will the new 
Nano play my standard-sized videos since the unit can be turned on
its
side for widescreen view? No, I can't see the screen, but at the
moment iTunes won't even copy the movies to the iPod. For those
interested, they are AAc audio with an AC3 track in the case of
surround movies, h.264 video, and the dimensions are usually 640x480, sometimes higher. Wil the new nano be able to simply take these files 
as is? Because if it can I'll just do that, it'd save me a lot of
time
in the long run and besides I've been wanting one for a while.

Thanks
