In regards to my last message: I don't know why I thought you said Pentax. What model is this camera? I'm curious.

I tried analyzing the MOV file, but I guess GSpot can't analyze MOV files for some reason.

I tried encoding your file with Super and it seemed to work perfectly. It was fast and created a file that was 13% of the size of the original, and the quality looked excellent. I have no idea why it would have a problem with a batch job. That's unfortunate because it looks like Super would be the program for you if it were stable enough. I do admit that I've had the occasional stability problem with it, but over all it's been a great application for me.

Do you have another machine you could try this all out on? Perhaps your machine has entered codec hell, from which a complete reformatting is the only escape
