Using the H.264 and “Apple iPod Video Large” preset results in jitters.
What I found to work was to go ahead and encode using the above encoder settings then convert the resultant file using Oxelon video converter to create another MP4 video. That converted file will result with a file name xxxxx.mp4.mp4
This plays great on iPod touch.
Oxelon converter is a free download.
