I've been putting together a hdvideo2ipod.sh script that I'm happy to share,
it works but is a bit rough around the edges.

It uses ffmpeg to see if the audio is ok, then parses to VLC to convert LTAM
audio to something useful, then hands the whole lot back to ffmpeg to do the
final transcoding.

I've put it up on my blog at
