The command execute by your script is missing "acodec=libaacplus". Maybe 
there is a size limit to the jobqueue command..

You could change the command in the wrapper script to something like 
this: (so you can see whats going on withing ipodexport.pl)
/usr/local/bin/ipodexport.pl <http://ipodexport.pl> $* 1> 
/tmp/ipodexport.log 2>&1

Or you could also change to the following:

*Myth Job Command*
/usr/local/bin/ipod.sh starttime=%STARTTIME% chanid=%CHANID%

*/usr/local/bin/ipod.sh*
#!/bin/bash

echo "Environment variables:" > /tmp/export.log
export >> /tmp/export.log
echo "Exit status before export command $?" >> /tmp/export.log
echo "/usr/local/bin/ipodexport.pl <http://ipodexport.pl> $*" >> 
/tmp/export.log
/usr/local/bin/ipodexport.pl <http://ipodexport.pl> 
exportdir=/var/lib/mythtv/export $* size=720x480 aspect=16:9

ret=$?
