Description

I´m Spanish and a little bit noob so sorry for my ignorance. I would like to convert a video to a video specifically thought for my Ipod touch 2nd gen. That means an special aspect ratio (3:2). With the 0.9.6 version you couldn´t do this, I think, but in the new 0.9.7 version you have the possibility of changing the presets and adding codec´s options. So I have thought that taking this preset http://www.transcoder.org/media/presets/ipod.tar.bz2 and adding some option to the codec I would finally get it, am I right?

If not, is there any other chance? And since I want a video that exactly fits with the Iphone, shouldn't I set the same maximum and minimum height and wide with the exact measures of the Iphone screen?

Research direction

Start by examining the iPod preset at http://www.transcoder.org/media/presets/ipod.tar.bz2 and the codec options available in Arista 0.9.7. Confirm whether the preset settings can express a 3:2 output for an iPod touch 2nd gen; done means documenting the supported settings or the limitation and available workaround.
