H.264 encoding is included. > Paul, Good to know. It has taken me over 500+ hours to convert all of these videos from RAW to DIVX(Mpeg-4) already. If I convert any of them to quicktime, I wonder how well that will be and if the quality will degrade any. By the way, I will need quicktime pro if I want to play ANY Saab videos on the new Ipod Video because it ONLY plays quicktime in video format. I also don't believe that there is a Quicktime Pro for Linux either. SG
