I'll echo Brad's suggestion.  I couldn't get myth2ipod to work, but Jeff's
video2ipod works wonderfully for me.  It looks like you are in Australia,
which - if it's anything like the UK DVB - you need to tweak the script to
allow for anamorphic widescreen (the default script assumed 4:3 and squeezed
everything to that), and I had to add "-ac 2 -ar 44100" to the
ffmpeg_extra_options
in the config file to get it to treat the audio correctly.
