Encoding for web + mobile, streaming + downloading: mp4 format, 640px width, 720kbps video, 96kbps audio.
This is nice because it gives excellent quality while also working fine on mobile devices, even first-generation iPhone and iPod Touch.
Using the x264 presets it is easy!
Two passes:
ffmpeg -i INPUT -an -pass 1 -s 640xH -vcodec libx264 -profile baseline -preset slow -vpre ipod640 -b 720k -aspect W:H -threads 0 -f ipod -y /dev/null
ffmpeg -i INPUT -acodec libfaac -ar 48000 -ac 2 -ab 96k -async 1 -pass 2 -s 640xH -vcodec libx264 -profile baseline -preset slow -vpre ipod640 -b 720k -aspect W:H -threads 0 -f ipod -metadata "title=TITLE" OUTPUT-1.mp4
You need to specify H in the -s parameter based on the size of the source video (e.g. H=360 for 16:9 aspect ratio). And of course you need to specify W:H for the -aspect parameter.
Finally, you need to adjust the moov atom for streaming:
qt-faststart OUTPUT-1.mp4 OUTPUT.mp4
