Excellent show. I picked up a Panasonic GS-400 for shooting music videos for my new Flow video podcast channel. I find myself using the bundled Panasonic Motion DV for editing. It's been pretty simple to use so far. I only capture the scenes that I want to save disk space. I picked up a 200GB external hard drive which I see as a must for digital video editors. As far as codecs go I think that the H264 codec is the only way to go. It smashes down to a pretty small file with the right settings. I can create a good looking 20 minute video at 320x240 size with 128Kps stereo sound at about 90MB. I usually encode at about 600kps at 24 frames. H264 will also stream in the browser. It takes anywhere from 90min-2Hr to encode, but it's something that has to be done. I've thought about multiple formats but the time it takes to encode and the time it takes to upload each file has stopped me from going that route. I spent the $29.99 US on the QuickTime Pro and so far it's been worth it. Most of the video podcast demand right now seems to be coming from the Video iPod/iTunes users so I haven't had anyone grumble about the single format. One pitfall of H264 is that it's such a new codec that many users won't have the latest version. So I point users to the QT7 download page in the event that they can't see the video. GDay Cameron!

There is a tool, Iriverter (http://iriverter.sourceforge.net/index.shtml) that can move lots of video formats to the right format for the iRiver. Would love to see you have this option when you launch (i.e. Irvier stream). Also, don't forget the Sony PSP when planning (perhaps you need to get one for business testing) as it seems to be big for Video at the moment.
