Just for fun I tried converting the Serenity trailer uwing the "Export
Movie to iPod" option in QuickTime Player. It made a 320x181 pixel movie
that iTunes accepts fine, and looks good (as usual) played at double
size but pretty crappy when playeed full screen (1600x1200 :-P ). It's
12 MB is size for 2:19. (the original was 22.8 MB)
Now I just need an iPod to try it on...
