Podsize is a Dashboard widget that allows you to check whether video is the proper size and format to be copied to an iPod.

The fifth-generation iPod’s maximum video size is primarily constrainted by pixel count, being 480?480, or 230,400 pixels for MPEG-4 formatted files or 320?240 / 76,800 pixels for H.264 formatted files.

On the front, enter your video dimensions into the appropriate boxes, select a constraint (4:3, 16:9 etc) and Podsize will let you know whether or not your video is iPod-compatible.

You can also ‘bump’ your video dimensions up and down using the controls at the bottom of the widget.

On the back of the widget, you can swap between H.264 and MPEG-4 video and customise Podsize to match your iPod.

What's New:
Maximum dimensions for iPod have been increased inline with the increase in video capability with firmware 1.2 for 5th and 6th generation iPod.
H.264 is now the default encoding option
Bump buttons have been restyled
An update function has been included to make sure that your Podsize widget is current
Input boxes on Podsize have been increased making it easier to read
The widget file size has been reduced 372kb to 172 kb
