Created Podcast - not compatible with iPod!

Question

I encoded a batch of DV-PAL movies into H.264 files with compressor, I wanted them to have high quality and be compatible with iPod Video.
My .mov/compressor encodes turned out not to be.
They work fine in browsers, or even in the iTunes directory.
But when it gave a error saying it can't be copied over to the iPod because it's not a compatible format.
My podcast can be found here:
feed://podcast.medieproducent.se/podcast.xml
The last 2 entries is newly encoded.
grantjuven_QT.m4v is encoded with QT and the export movie to iPod (320x240) preset.
Note: the encode only turns out as 300x240, but 5:4 is correct Square Pixel aspect ratio for PAL, but still it's confusing that the preset got 320x240 in the name.
grantjuven_compressor.mov is encoded with compressor using the following settings:
File Extension: mov

AAC, Stereo (L R), 48,000 kHz

Hinted for QuickTime
streaming server
The .m4v stream alot of browsers have mime-type problems with, even latest version of safari so I want to keep the container to .mov.
What have I done wrong, and what's the best possible settings you can encode with in compressor to get a compatible iPod friendly podcast?
From apples specs:
H.264 video
File formats: .m4v, .mp4 and .mov
Video: Up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3
Audio: AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 KHz, stereo audio
I can't see anything that differs from my settings.
Should be the Baseline Profile 1.3, but I havent found any settings for that!
Or the pixel aspect ratio maybe?
Help!

Answer 1

About QTs encoding size the clip is not forced to 4:3 resolution of 320x240, instead it is resized to fit in the boundaries of a 320x240 rectangle. i.e. a 640x268 clip I had, was resized to 320x134.
-it supports non-mod16 resolutions like the one above or 317x240.
found some info on profiles:
QuickTime only supports up to Main Profile. None of the High Profile settings such as 8x8 intra are supported by Apple. If you try to encode your x264 video with these settings, it will NOT play on QuickTime.
AVC/H.264 Profiles
The AVC/H.264 standard defines four different Profiles: Baseline, Main, Extended and High Profile (which themselves are subdivided into Levels):
- Baseline Profile offers I/P-Frames, supports progressive and CAVLC only
- Extended Profile offers I/P/B/SP/SI-Frames, supports progressive and CAVLC only
- Main Profile offers I/P/B-Frames, supports progressive and interlaced, and offers CAVLC or CABAC
- High Profile (aka FRExt) adds to Main Profile: 8x8 intra prediction, custom quants, lossless video coding, more yuv formats (4:4:4...)
Does anyone have more info on the specs of Baseline 1.3?
Google was not my friends on that one.
