I need to convert videos for use in both a flash player and the iphone/ipod touch. I'm using the following batch script with ffmpeg:
@echo off
ffmpeg.exe -i %1 -s qvga -acodec libfaac -ar 22050 -ab 128k -vcodec libx264 -threads 0 -f ipod %2
This always outputs an mp4 file, and I can always play it on my PC. The videos also seem to play fine on my iphone 3GS. But with some input files it won't work for older iphone versions (3G and iPod touch).
Here's the ffmpeg output from one such file:

My suspicion is that it has something to do with the audio encoding. If so, does anyone know how to force it to reencode the audio to the proper format?
Any other ideas?
